well am hoping for this feature too, you planned to implement it in A7 and users made project plans with it in mind yet it failed in the final version, i rewrote my code once to implement it and it didnt work, so i had to rewrite code again..
then you guys said it was fixed again so i again rewrote code only to have to rewrite it... soo, i really dont think you should just drop your previous users before simply because you upgrade...
