I don't think this will happen without a major shift to a more
customer-friendly policy at Sun.
When is "break my customer's stuff" seen as friendly?
Can you quantify:
1) How many of your customers things are going to break
2) What change will do the breaking
What changes are you proposing? How can we know what will break
without a list of what you want changed? This whole conversation is a
lot of hand waving without any specific proposals.
A lot of brain damage in /usr/bin utilities can be fixed without
breaking them - adding new flags that were never used before is
usually completely compatible, and trivial to do.
