Are there compatibility headers and/or glue code for Cobalt API's
which will compile under existing the OS 4/5 tool chains for building
OS 4/5 compatible applications?  (e.g. a Garnet API FrmGotoForm()
or FrmGotoFormV6() which takes a DmRef parameter?)
This is not a troll.  This is a suggestion about a possibly desirable
direction for OS 4/5/Garnet  support which will allow developers
to adopt the Cobalt API's sooner.

I would like to port my apps once, but still have my code run on
the millions of OS 4/5 devices in the field.


IMHO, YMMV.
