How big an install base did you have? How many independent users had
downloaded the code anonymously? And was this code in the default
install of a popular Linux distribution?

However much it might make sense from a pure architecture perspective
(and I agree that it probably does), real-world deployed base issues
tend to raise the bar somewhat.
