For older images they've been pretty well tested over the years -
remember I did the initial implementation back at Interval in 98(?) -
and Anthony H. used it in his first pass at adding block closures. So
barring changes in recent images that break something it ought to be
pretty good.

The major problem of course is that it causes a break in backward
compatability. Then again, we could take advantage of that to clear out
quite a bit of fecal matter.
