Ah, sorry!

Yes, I mentioned it here because I've found this to be a common
misconception; the *idea* was that application's segwit code would not
have to be reworked for future upgrades, but that information propagated
poorly.
(Just as well, because of overly strict standardness rules, the overflow
bug, and now the proposed validation changes, turns out this lack of
forward compat is a feature!)
Thanks!
Rusty.
