Will this be a temp or permanent solution? Seems like it should be a
temp one till OO addresses the known issue. Does not seem like
functionality should exist that goes against the standard specification.

The workaroud will be need to fix the implementation specific issues, in
the current OO. If the OO developers resolve that. Then will there be
any need or use to the workaround?

Other than for people migrating from older versions of JayBird. In which
case their apps do not conform to the standard. Since they are relying
on using a non standard "implementation" feature. Seems like in those
cases best to break the app, so it can be modified to conform with
stadards.
