I don't consider it a backward compatability problem since it has never
been in a stable release. That is what RCs are for, to work these kinks
out. Whatever we do will be detailed in the manual.
I will change the syntax and commit it. If there are any strong
objections, we'll deal with those as they come. I assume that the
backticks themselves are OK, I didn't see a viable alternative that was
any better.
