No, for the reasons I mentioned before. But thanks to a new cia.resource,
the parallel device is 3 times faster under 2.0 anyway. That means that
the fast mode is only 3-7 faster under 2.0, rather than 10-20 times.

I cheered such a proposal when I was at the employ of Commodore. Since I
don't work there anymore, you can't blame me for [the lack of] it. You on the
other hand...  ;-)
