I don't think we need this for a few reasons:
1. The behavior change is so drastically different I think it needs to be an 
explicitly opt-in to avoid surprise.
2. There is already a very manual process of downloading the newer jar for 
usage. This is far more inconvenient than adding a flag.
3. There is also a server side configuration change required which is also far 
more inconvenient than adding a flag.
4. The value of adding this degrades very quickly as more releases come out.
