I agree with the comment made on that issue - this isn't the right way to handle the problem. We need to encourage projects to opt into the new approach and remove the legacy path once it's no longer needed. We should *not* maintain the "old style" approach indefinitely, hiding the fact that it's no longer the correct approach by having some sort of "auto convert" logic in the tools. Doing that has the *opposite* effect to what we're trying to achieve - adoption of cleaner modern approaches will take *longer*, because we're actively allowing projects to continue using their existing approach with no consequences.
