Yes, it is.

So IFF we get that append mode I think it would help to simplify
drivers that have unmanaged pre and post vectors, and/or do the above
proving.

So instead of currently requesting a single unmanaged vector, do
basic setup, tear it down, request N managed vectors with an unmanaged
pre-vector we could just keep the unmanaged vector, never tear it down
and just append the post vectors.  In the long run this could remove
the need to do the pre and post vectors entirely.
