Nope -- I think it's a great idea. |

I like this modification a bit better. I'd also suggest that colors be used |
| 14 |
to further distinguish the two. |

Also, regarding breaking existing scripts vs. using a command flag, break |
| 17 |
the damn scripts. It's unreasonable to expect that scripts will *never* |
| 18 |
need updating and this change is being made specifically to make it easier |
| 19 |
for scripts in the future. Backwards compatibility is nice and all, but |
| 20 |
there's a reasonable limit. |
