I'm not really opposed to that, that sort of thing would be necessary
anyway. Themes have to add support for new features. There's several
new things in 3.0 that will require theme changes. The comment_form()
stuff, for example. Themes always have to be changed for support, you
can't back-support everything, not without also breaking backward
compatibility.

I just wish that the new menu stuff was capable of replacing the old
way of doing things without such a major and crippling loss of
functionality.
