Completely disagree; I think it'd be far better that a majority of older
rocks work without having to force updates from authors / takeover rocks,
and the few that do fail can be updated to < 5.2.

Are there that many rocks that fail when switching to 5.2 that this is a
major issue? Trying to install a rock and having it say "nope, not
compatible" even though it *actually is* seems more of a problem to me, in
my experience.
