I disagree completely!  Now is the time to _explore_ converting these 
classes, so if you run into something we didn't plan for, you can 
provided feedback in time for us to actually do something about it.  You 
may not want to _ship_ these, but now is the ideal time to be trying it 
out, and reporting back feedback.
