Comment (by goldfire):

 Where are we with this ticket? It looks like we have a sensible approach
 to the original poster's needs. And we've formulated (loosely) a way of
 keeping code alive. But does that new pragma have real clients who want
 it? Of course, we ''could'' do this, but ''should'' we?
