The biggest problem is the millions of old reader versions installed within large organisations.

Hmmm. Why > not. Maybe a bit simpler to implement than the previous solution. Although, > "yet another extension", etc. I don't see a problem with adding another extension or fop.xconf setting. As long as its documented correctly. Making PDF 1.5 optional is the preferred option.
