I forget, and I don't remember when the original discussion took place -
what were the reasons for refusing to switch over back when the request
was first made (by, I think, the developers of the library), and why
would they not apply now?

I think the objections had something to do with API issues and/or
senseless renaming... people were fairly adamant about rejecting the
change at the time, IIRC.
