I stated my position on the NS4 issue earlier today in response to a
different email, but I'll summarize here in case anyone missed it:

    If we need to do any more than the @import trick to support NS4,
    we're doing too much.  If the @import trick is sufficient, we
    should do it.

NS4 is dying off, and we shouldn't stop it.  (If we can hurry it
along, that would be a Good Thing, even if NS4 users don't know that
yet.)
