True. But if 14.04 gives the user a preview session with unity8, it
might be problematic. Especially the conflict with Empathy.

Title:
  Unity 8 indicators mixed with Unity 7

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I installed Unity 8 from the Software Center on Ubuntu 13.10, along
  with all main apps (web-browser, gallery...) just out of curiosity (I
  have no coding abilities whatsoever).

  But now, every time I boot my computer, I get two different network
  indicators on my Unity 7 panel. The second one has a small lock on it,
  and is the Unity 8 indicator. Whenever I run Unity 8 in a terminal and
  then close it, the indicator disappears.

  On a similar note, the same kind of mix happens when I receive a
  message on Empathy. Phone and SMS appear in my messaging menu and the
  message is treated as both phone call and SMS. This is more
  problematic because it prevents me from opening a conversation in
  Empathy (even when I go directly in Empathy, the window won't open).

  I guess some parts of Unity 8 load at startup, but I don't which, how
  or why...

  But after all, it's very nice seeing these hints of future
  convergence!
