Which I have. Package is in our proposed pocket now awaiting migration. I've
also been preparing a Stable Release Update for it.
Regarding "breaking existing scripts", the naysayer in question has been known
to use outdated methods (refers to ideas stemming back to 2008, so 16 years

people's ability to use hardware, certain people should be more flexible and
adapt their scripts to use newer methods.
