"We are breaking your existing working setup but you can add a new
configuration to unbreak it" should not be done lightly.  I think as the
end result it is a reasonable thing to aim for for this particular
feature, but we do need a transition plan patch in between that introduces
a step that warns but not forbids.  We can ship 1.6.1 with it and then
switch the default to forbid in 1.6.3, for example.

I wonder if you can use the tests 3/4 touches as the test for your "keep
existing setup" configuration variable, pretending that they are old
timer's repositories?
