As we say in physics: in theory there's no difference between theory 
and practice; in practice, there is.

Do images in the rc channel have equivalents in the rc-proposed 
channel?  If so, someone (and I'll volunteer to be someone) could run 
the images that would have been promoted on flo and see how they would 
have worked.  If most of them mostly work, we could be someone 
confident about this plan.  If there are significant problems, then it 
might not be such a great idea.  Obviously, past performance is no 
guarantee of future results, but it might help with the decision.

Thanks,
