Oops. That part I overlooked. Yes this certainly reduces the issue I
initially saw here and therefore I guess unless s/o supports solution 1
or 3, nothing would be worth to add for no 2.

In the light of this script surviving the release of 1.10 I'd though
suggest to add the known issue as a comment to the top of the file:

# Note: This script has a hardcoded check for a 1.7 WC format. It won't work
# with 1.8+ WCs.
# As stated in the exception it's unfinished and not ready for use.

Regards,
Stefan
