the major issue with MQ and obsolescence marker and evolution is cycle. 
MQ is perfectly capable (and trying hard) to recreate changeset with the 
same hash than before. And you cannot change that as is would be a 
massive backward compat breakage.

Because of this, this are very like to create messy obsolescence cycle. 
A pretty bad idea.


It may be time to move people to Evolve ?
