Of course.  I'm just saying, the behavior is *slightly* different. ^_^

We can make *additions*, turning previously-invalid syntax into valid
syntax with new behavior.  That's the *entire point* of
forward-compatible parsing.

We can't make *changes* unless we're confident that they won't break things.

In any case, premultiplied alpha is the best thing to do.  I don't
know why you hate it.  And this isn't the thread to revisit it.  ^_^
