	0.9.4 isn't that old, and last I checked, 0.9.3 was still the  
version ubuntu gives me.

	I think the concern isn't so much how difficult it is to maintain  
backwards compatibility, it's that the last three minor versions have  
each  moved this command.

	Would you invest a lot of time writing a plugin that you assume  
wouldn't work if a 0.9.5 comes out?
