This x 1000. This is an absolute MUST for the release of 4.0 lest we
silently alter every system out there (terrifying).

I was also bitten by this during testing and it made the thought of
converting my code to 4.0 daunting.
The auto conversion also holds for the current parser, so I don't see how
