I agree we should bite the bullet and do this. This is what the DP specs
tell us to do. I'm pretty sure there will be regressions, but I'm also
starting to believe there's a greater number of machines that are
currently either broken beyond repair or papered over with some hacks
than the number that will regress. We should just dig into them and fix
them instead of burying our heads in the sand.

BR,
Jani.
