+SL Backcompat Plan:
+
+*** dynamic schemas
+
+* should default to 0.04006 mode
+* __PACKAGE__->naming('current') will turn on current mode
+
+*** 0.04006 mode
+
+* use the detector and compat relbuilder ilmari already wrote for static schemas
+* make sure results are not singularized
+* add a loud warning that says that we're running in backcompat mode, and refers
+  to the ::Manual::UpgradingFrom4006 POD.
+
+*** 0.04006 tests
+
+* are in t/backcompat/0.04006
+* have their own lib/
+* should only run with the SCHEMA_LOADER_TESTS_BACKCOMPAT=1 env var
+* need tests_recursive (or whatever) in Makefile.PL
+* need to run in 0.04006 mode (by seeding with a Schema.pm generated by
+  0.04006, activation of backcompat mode should be minimally invasive.)
+
+*** common tests
+
+* should be all based off a static schema, because dynamic schemas will be
+  in 0.04006 mode
+
+*** Schema::Loader::Base
+
+* 'naming' accessor should be a Class::Accessor::Grouped 'inherited' type
+  accessor, doc is written
+
+*** Write ::Manual::UpgradingFrom4006 POD
+
+*** Catalyst Helper
+
+* Add 'upgrade=1' option that upgrades from both old S::L and old helper,
+  whichever or both.
+* Warn when old helper output or 0.04000 S::L output is detected, that refers to
+  the upgrade option.
+
+Release dev S::L, announce to catalyst, dbic lists and #catalyst that testing of
+backcompat mode is needed, wait 2-3 weeks, then release 0.05000.
