Well, as I said, it's very much "Apple's XP" -- we'd like to get rid of it, and 
it's slowly on it's way out but still very much relevant to keep around as a 
deployment target for the time being (just as XP is).

Firefox and Chrome dropped support for 10.5 only relatively recently (late 
2012?), I don't remember exactly when, but those are probably relatively good 
indicators of when to start dropping support for older platforms.
