Hi

Following this discussion, I want to throw in my 2 cents as well:
  On a real long term (like 5 or 10 years from now), the solution  
should be as "clean" as possible with as little awkward parts because  
of backward compatibility. This favors of a more separate solution  
with a compatibility layer. Sure enough, this means more work to set  
it up and maintain it. Therefore, it will take longer to have it  
running, but in the end it will prevent the situation, I'd like to  
call the A20 gate situation.
