The issue for us is not that carbon is going away, it's that 10.4 support
is going away.  I'm perfectly happy to go through the growing pains of
moving over to the Cocoa based aqua toolkit.

What I'm not happy about is dropping 10.4 support.  10.4 is still an
actively supported release, it was a good release, and as a vendor it
is not my place to tell people to get off a platform before the platform
is end of lifed.

One of tcl/tk's claims to fame is backwards compat and platform support.
Dropping 10.4 seems to run counter to the goals of the system.
