I hereby propose that we fork a major revision, allowing these changes to go into that branch. You have described reasons to justify completely overhauling the JTAG layer in OpenOCD. I know these reasons exists, and I think that it would outright _stupid_ of us to do it in phases. We should bite the bullet and fix all of the problems at once, and _then_ do *one* round of regression testing and fixed. That sound a whole lot like a major revision to me. I do _not_ want to suffer through several minor releases, fixing one part of the problem at a time.
