Yeah, I'm not sure that would be worth the extra complexity and using the old API would "keep" the issue we're trying to solve here.
I don't think we should be worried that much by the number of extensions impacted but more about the change complexity and it looks pretty simple.
So, I don't think we should worry that much in that regard.
