Thanks Ryan, good point. I'll check with the team. I think, at least in my
mind, we were very focused on 2.0 feature set, such as resources, and so
anything that needed 2.0 would be in the new world order. Your desire to
actually reach out into the past and implement this via the charmstore for
1.25 is interesting and we'll have to see if clients passed enough info in
the past to be able to do that intelligently.
