The last time I and others brought this up to Jordan, the tentative plan was to
switch for 5.0.  At this point in the game it is probably a bit late for 4.5,
however, if you want to head up an effort to get test port builds done after
the release with 4 as the default and get people to test it out then perhaps a
switch could be done for 4.6.
