  the only breakage that i've heard mentioned on this list is
  that of the activities moving -- i've seen nothing about the
  environment changing so as to require wrapper changes (and i've
  already commented to that effect at olpcnews).  can someone
  confirm that i'm not wrong?

You are correct.

Is this the reason that Bryan Berry in Nepal found that Tux Paint did not
work, and is the instruction given here:

still the correct way to disable isolation?

   I assumed that what's behind this is the introduction of rainbow.

   G1G1 participants might be exposed to it when installing Update.1]

 You are right looks like isolation has been enabled by default only
 starting from Update.1.

That's the big on/off switch for all isolation. Sugar also independently
decides to turn off isolation for a small number of activities listed in
its source code.
