Comment:

 Lacking of traction, and we would be better off enhancing WordPress to
 handle all cases (as we have improved in the last 2 years).

 In the event that someone writes a patch which has a good UX flow to it,
 please re-open for a re-consideration, however, due to the direction that
 upgrades are likely to head in the future, I can't see it being a
 consistent experience.

 There are [http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-
 config.php#WordPress_Upgrade_Constants constants available] at present for
 those affected by any detection bugs.
