The question about losing 'hacks' depends upon whether their exploitation is because of sloppy programming or fortuitous side-effects. If the former, yes, we're in for a rude awakening when all of these nearly essential hacks are nullified by a core rewrite. If the latter, updating the core code shouldn't nullify many of them. Personally, it appears to be a little of each, but mainly fortuitous side-effects. The Poser file parse is rather flexible, which allows for many of these offshoot type of Pose files and so on. On the other hand, if 'readScript' were removed or another new Master/Slave interface were enplaced for some reason, say bye-bye to Morph Injection/Removal and ERC.

C makes it easy to shoot yourself in the foot. C++ makes it harder, but when you do, you blow your whole leg off.
