I wouldn't have an issue with using a python script this if it is only used
for upgrades from formats 12 to 18 to single-db. The upgrade from entries
(read: 1.6.x and below) must be in c of course. But keeping the multi-db
read code working for all the intermediate multi-db formats might provide
too much overhead.
We are not going to provide long-time support for these dev only
intermediate formats anyway.
