I don't mind breaking backwards compatibility, if the factory defaults no longer actually work..... Also, lets think about the users here. This is a very old box. Anybody playing with one are probably of the sort who tinker with a classic car in the garage, taking the engine apart and putting it back together again. I doubt there are users of this box who take their car in for a service once they are out of windscreen washing water.
