No. I've argued strenuously against that notion in the past, in fact.

I agree with the general idea of making the ZTK something much like the 
currently proposed set. I just don't like the execution. Like it or not, 
we can't just drop obligations to backwards compatibility just like 
that, and we should manage these responsibilities in common as much as 
we can. And then if we can responsibly lose these responsibilities, by 
all means.
