What I read Conor to be saying was:

 * There is at least one example of a buildfile that relies
   on the current behaviour

 * There is a "reasonable" (*) use case for the current
   behaviour.

Both of which suggest that any change is going to be a
nightmare for backwards compatiblity.

(*) We can argue forever about what is reasonable. Let's
    just accept that the use case has a result that is useful
    to the authro, and is not contrived.
