I cannot say yes or no to this. As I stated, Chess960 support needs a lot of work, but it is possible, and without modifications of the move encoding. But a new database version number - this means .si5 - is unavoidable. If you store Chess960 games in .si4, then an older Scid version will have problems with such a database, because the castling is not supported in older applications. Thus, because .si5 is unavoidable, a little enhancement for an optimal storage of Chess960 games (the way how the start position will be saved) can be done for the new format. But in fact .si4 cannot be used for Chess960.
