Oh, I would never claim conformance for any of the hacks I might
use... in fact dont hack and conformance tend to repel when they get
anywhere near each other? :D

Of course the focus has got to be conformance when at all possible,
hack when there are simply no other known options and you need it to
work today or at very least sometime before there is likely to be
changes in the spec that will fix the problem you are having to use
the hack for.
