I am not entirely against such a change. I think everybody here agrees
that the "feature" is just plain stupid, but it is not an uncommon
feature request. I do, however, think we should raise a warning every
time a | or a & is interpreted when the feature is enabled. I really
fear it will be hard to track down silly bugs otherwise.
