No good, for two reasons. First, this is a global scope change, and we can't make global scope changes to EAPIs using current mechanisms. EAPIs have to carry on using bash 3 until the EAPI mechanism is changed. Second, by order of the Council, EAPI 3's feature list was locked several weeks ago. If we ignore that for one thing, it just means everyone else who had features that came along too late will start demanding we reconsider those too... -- Ciaran McCreesh
