Nothing. We are certainly not going to add such a switch to 7.3 at this
point (it's been feature-frozen for months, remember?) and by the time
7.4 is out it'll be moot, because the non-spec-compliant applications
will have been fixed.

I agree with Scott Marlowe's take on this: the correct solution is to
fix the applications.
