Occasionally checking out by date is useful, mostly on HEAD, like with the 
recent KHTML problems where 'cvs up -D'two days ago'' helped. It's not 
entirely clear from your mail if that would be possible in the future or not.

On the one hand I read the mail as if it's not possible for the migrated code, 
and new code is unaffected, but the phrase "... and possibly never will be" 
scares me a bit.

Could you elaborate whether this affects only imported code or also future 
code?

If only imported, then it's unfortunate, but I for one could live. If also 
future code then I don't think it's a good idea at all.
