    I recently started to remove implicit support for WO 5.2.x in Wonder
    and would expect the same to happen in WOLips. Basically: if you can
    supply patches which work on 5.3, I'll integrate them, if not, it's
    up to you to think of something that works. (Speaking for me, not for
    Mike or whoever)

    One thing that would come into mind here would be a property that
    would switch to a different class to load...

    Cheers, Anjo
