However such a practice doesn't necessarly make for good policy or good law. I believe such special exceptions should be avoided if at all possible.

FYI - We've done this with fees for legacy resource holders but haven't 
done it with policies as of this date. The community can decide to have
special policies for legacy resource holders if desired, subject to the
risks you've noted above.

Thanks!
