I'm interested in hearing opinions from multiple people about the
following two questions:

1. Is the new behavior better than the old behavior?
2. Will breaking backward compatibility make too many people unhappy?

My guess is that the answer to the first question is "yes" and that
the answer to the second one is "no", but this is clearly a
significant incompatibility, so I'd like to hear some more opinions
before concluding that we definitely want to do this.

​For #2 I'm not that concerned about turning an error case into a non-error.

The rationale behind #1 makes sense to me.  Given all the recent work on "IF NOT EXISTS" we obviously think that this general behavior is desirable and we should correct this deviation from that norm.
