In the spirit of throwing ideas around, I wonder whether the better way to
about it is keeping them separate with clear documentation and figure out a
way to deprecate the old one as AFAICS the new one should be able to do
everything the old one was doing. Would it be an option to, say, make the
verifier warn the users towards converting to the new one and eventually
remove the old one down the line?

Thanks.
