Agreed, you can bet my team won't be updating our 150+ plug-ins anytime soon, if it ain't broke we don't fix.
If you really want to see people migrate you need to provide a braindead-simple migration path. Ideally a PDE warning marker on the manifest and a quick-fix as well as new UI in the manifest editor.
