This isn't entirely true.  The System Disk Release 4.0 does not include
HFS support, true.  GS/OS can support it, however, as near as I can
determine, once somebody comes up with an appropriate FST.  I suspect
this is being worked on, but as you pointed out there are many applications
that would fail.  Time is needed to allow applications to become "FST-aware".
