[theme-reviewers] How to request "grandfathered" exception to WP 3.9 Theme guidelines?

[Otto]

I thought you migrated people to the plugin for that one. The plugin route
is a much better experience for your case, I think.

Regardless, migration takes time. 3.9 is coming out in 6 weeks, so that's
realistically not enough time for theme authors to migrate users to a
better way. 4.0 in August or 4.1 in December might be a better timeframe to
start that level of enforcement. Require authors to start building in
plugin-migration, sort of thing. Maybe provide a plugin that will handle
the case for them if necessary, and code to add to a theme that eases that
migration.
