Ah, somebody noticed the catch ;-)

Of course it will, but I think that 5.0 is some time in the future. Why 
shouldn't we too have some fun with a code that's a bit more clean.

And many of the deprectated things can be solved by other means. Eg. you 
don't need the PAGE.hover attribute (use CSS or create a custom body tag).

IMHO the plan to force everybody to UTF8 (which I oppose) is more troublesome.
