Hi all,
the workflow plugin starting with Jenkins 1.599 will have support for
build wrappers[1], this would make it prime time to implement support
for workflow in build wrappers such as the Xvfb that I'm maintaining.

How would a build wrapper plugin remain backward compatibility with
older Jenkins installations (well older than 1.599 at least)?

One thing that comes to mind is to register a custom XStream converter
that instantiates SimpleBuildWrapper on Jenkins >= 1.599 or
BuildWrapper otherwise. Is that wise? Could some kind of backward
compatibility support/strategy be implemented in core?

Thanks ;)
