It's not cost that's delaying it right now.  We can't do backwards
compatibility until we have something to make compatible.  We have to
develop IC6 at least to a point where we can get some sort of pre-alpha
release out before we can do backwards anything.

Going back to the idea of sharing sessions, I think that could work in
the shorter term, but I also think that full BC plugins should be in the
books for the longer term.  Interchange now uses either storable or db
sessions, and dancer has Dancer::Session::Storable which can probably be
made to be compatible with the current IC5 disk-based sessions.  As for
Db sessions there is probably an easy solution for that as well, maybe
an existing Dancer::Session module, or we can always write one to have
dancer sessions compatible with the db.
