However I do think that if the name were different, the regular viewer would really benefit from some of the features of the RLV, such as sharing Windlight settings, setting the avatar rotation, changing the clothes remotely etc.
Or even all of the restrictions like no-detach, no-IMs etc which are, after all, only "hooks" that are in the viewer to make scripts decide whether or not an ability can be used according to the circumstances. It really enhances the experience and allows for products that would never have been made otherwise. And since all the RLV features can be turned off by changing one debug setting and relogging, there is no real additional threat from griefers.
