Comment (by kcrisman):
> I think I was unclear -- sorry. As I understand it, the code here isn't
backward incompatible. What I meant is that the uniform interface I
envision probably isn't compatible with the current interface. So the
idea to release now, fix later (which I generally support!) would mean
that we can't "fix" until after a year of deprecation.

have to be reorganized, with some methods moved to different classes, and
there would need to be deprecation for that as well.

another 3 years -- but I just can't convince myself it's good to release
this as is. Do you disagree?
I guess I'm not clear about what would need to be deprecated. Remember,
it's only user-visible things that would need this. If it's backend
stuff... Maybe I just need more explicit detail about what your proposed
reorganization would imply for the user interface. texture_map.py seems
okay, it's perhaps mainly the `colordata` tuple you are concerned with? I
haven't thought very deeply at all about this, I know your experience with
Tachyon has given you a lot of chances to do so.
