I see big problem with this method : it works for a personal standalone
computer.
It is catastrophic when you manage hundreds of servers and tightly
integrated workstations.
And I still see no transition documentation or help.
There is documentation, but only reference docyumentation using very
speciaized and non standard voicabulary, so verycomplicated to understand.
That's what it lacks.

I also think that the transition was far too fast : The testing fast,
see wether it breaks anything should have been done *before* setting it
the default. Not after.
