I find this discussion interesting.  I know some people
see the file difference in 2.7 to be a major hurdle.
However - RunRev are not alone in doing this.  As pointed
out by some even Hypercard had issues between versions. But
it's also common on many other platforms including the likes
of Delphi and Visual Basic (and various flavours of C++).
Adding functionality to a new version, logically, is going
to break something, sometime.  With Chipp's stack pretty
much taking care of the issue (and this is something you
do *not* see on many other platforms), IMHO the situation
is moot.  I'm not arguing that problems in 2.7 do or do
not exist.  Rather I'm saying to improve a product it is 
sometimes necessary to depart from prior formats in order
to add enhanced functionality.

Just my AU 2 cents worth, around US 10 cents,
