This is a reasonable approach. This allows you to use the best tool
for the job, but still keeps the help desk's cost down by not
requiring them to understand it as well. I don't mind orgs telling me
they won't support my tools, as long as they don't prevent me from
using them. (does my dsl provider know that there has never been a
windows or mac box connected to it? not likely.)
