I will draw a line in sand on this (and you can tell me which side of the line this is)
requiring new technology is fine AS LONG AS the current *released* popular client distros
(say, two out of three of Fedora, openSuSE & Ubuntu) are shipping with that supported.
If those guys don't have a release with it yet, it's too cutting edge and leads to too many issues
for our users.
