And the keyword is *legacy* IMO. We have had legacy things like /proc/acpi,
/proc/ide etc. for years. However one by one they are being dropped and
replaced with more vivid interfaces. IMO one shouldn't hang around legacy
things for years. Just define and implement the replacement and delcare
that legacy interface will fade out and will be removed in a year or two.
With best wishes
