Unplanned is simular to planless and this is what I would call the Sun tar 
extensions I have in mind. They are based on deprecated methods 6 years after 
the deprecation was official and 8 years after the fact of the deprecation was 
known. We live in the time POSIX.1-2001 and no longer in POSIX.1-1988 time.

I was in hope that this will be already possible. Unfortunately a fight was 
started that will not bring us towards an OpenSolaris that is created in 
cooperation of poeple from Sun and the external community.

We need cooperation and dicsussions between experts.
