As also said by Dan: new features => adaptation required. Supporting `?` in your own home-grown internal code-generator is something you can do as part of a 7.1 migration path, exactly like we'll have to do with the OSS libs. That said, I'm muting the thread: I'm basically wasting time with this, apparently.
