Review comment:
       Yeah, I was debating the latter. It's probably unlikely that this is 
used outside of the ReplicaVerificationTest. As far as I know, no one has filed 
an issue about it, so maybe we could drop this support. I decided to err on the 
side of compatibility, but I could probably be convinced to change my mind.
