I agree that transition costs must be considered.
This is somewhat OT, since it's really about general transition costs, but should we add a continuable error to parse-defsystem for handling unrecognized options?
I like beating people over the head that this might not do what they want, but I don't like leaving them with no way to proceed.
Possibly even better to have a continuable error that /remembers/ a defsystem option as something to be ignored. Then we wouldn't /keep/ complaining about :encoding over and over --- one continuable error continue and you'd be done.
That's a great idea. Patch welcome :-/
OK, I will try to get that done soon. I'm still up to my neck in work, but hope to squeak in some ASDF time later this week.
