If it's all in one place and only on disk it doesn't really matter doesn't it?
Even if loaded into memory as long as it is read in one block without
much seeking it shouldn't be that bad.
Backwards compatibility is always very important, as long as the price
to be paid for it is not excessive (which it isn't here I think)
