classic ivrscript binding plugin...

My one concern with a bayonne 1 classic binding for bayonne 2 is that we 
may get some odd cases where something does not behave exactly the same 
as before and I suspect that could be very annoying when migrating a 
script.  The easiest way to do a classic binding is to import a lot of 
code from the methods (scrXxxx) handlers in ccscript 2.5.7 and bayonne 
1.2, and graft those into a classic plugin, but some parts of the 
underlaying ccscript3 engine do behave differently, particularly in 
terms of stack frame management and inheriting events, the way prompts 
map to pathnames from the voice libraries are different (and much 
simpler!), and some of the Bayonne 2 states just might exhibit different 
behaviors as well.

The question I have is how many of these sort of issues would actually 
effect most people's existing realworld bayonne 1 scripts?  One reason I 
thought it would be easier to continue maintaining Bayonne "1" in 
parallel rather than building migration support into Bayonne 2 was for 
these kinds of issues.  I guess this largely depends on how people were 
making use of Bayonne 1.
