What is the reason to break user-space applications like this?
Did you read the whole thread? It was a low-level SCSI driver issue, where
nothing broke user space, but the command was just fed to the drive

Will this break major applications like CD/DVD rippers,
DVD players, etc.. which read LARGE blocks at a time?
If not, then good!
