Correct. We went through this for one module that I recall (threading) and that was annoying enough that we mostly left things alone after that unless they were truly obnoxious.

For threading we were able to clean a lot of things up in the process (such as adding properties where appropriate), but even so, we still made sure all the old names continued to work.

Cheers, Nick.
