It seems to me that a managed consumable item is a more versatile unmanaged item than using unmanaged items in v3, but I have not dealt with unmanaged items much myself.
Actually, I have wondered the same thing about subscriptions. Is a subscription just a consumable managed item, that you then consider consumed at the end of the specified period? Well, not quite, because you don't get recurring billing. And its not something I would do if subscriptions in v3 are somewhere just around the corner.
