Did Oracle consider using a mediator to set the system's nVidia version
branch?

Considered and rejected as nvidia's design doesn't allow multiple versions to be
installed on the system at the same time to mediate between.
Also, IPS mediator support is limited to changing symlinks - it doesn't support
changing the /etc/driver_aliases entries needed when switching between versions
of the nvidia driver to reflect the different subsets of hardware devices they
support.
