I thought Tom might be concerned about such a GUC destabilizing
things in other ways.  I just wanted to make clear how unlikely that
was in this case.  I agree that the risk of confusion in support is
always there with a backwards-compatibility GUC.
I'm still not taking a position either way on this, since I can see
the merit of both arguments and it has little impact on me,
personally.  I'm just trying to be up-front about things so people
can make an informed decision.
