Well, I proposed it because it is rather easy to do, does not change
the behavior of the old function unless the additional argument is
used (and thus can't introduce a bug unless a user chooses to exercise
this feature), and because there is otherwise an omission in the APIs.

I'd rather have people use this in case they actually need it than
fabricate workarounds.

I agree that there does not appear a particular need for existing
applications that I know.

Should I keep this around for putting it in after the release?
