>making 99% of the web secure is better than keeping an old 1% working

A fine idea, unless for $reason your application is among the 1% .. nevermind 
the arrogance of the "I'm sorry Dave" sort of attitude.

As an example .. we have a vendor who, in the current release (last 3 months) 
still requires "weak" ciphers in authentication responses. That was mostly okay 
until another vendor (with more sense) wanted to auth the same way but only 
permitted strong ciphers.
