I don't agree it's a radical departure, but I'd rather not end up in a
straw-splitting discussion about that. :-)

It's something that we agreed on doing during the Varnish user group
meeting (as documented on
http://varnish.projects.linpro.no/wiki/VUG1Report), as well as having
been discussed extensively on IRC already.
