I think that's a really valid concern, and it's something I thought
about - however, the v3 API is fairly incomplete and at times,
unusable. v2 is still being used (even though it's called deprecated)
- however, I was on the fence about introducing it.

I thought having it as a option would be a good thing(tm), but a
stiffly worded mail or argument would change my mind.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on this, personally, I see the use, but
others might see it as more of a liability.

Cheers!
