That does not apply to tor nodes though. These are forced to have some minimum version of tor or else the nodes are kicked out of the network for being too insecure. So their long tail is much shorter.
You'd also need to update web browsers and the SOCKS proxies that are usually used to connect the TOR sessions to the browsers. How much time are you prepared to spend to persuade them all that they should allow _label as the rightmost label?
2-3 years. Paul ps. note that I don't think they will change to use _underscore. ps2.
