A workaround to simplify the upgrade would be to change `wireprototypes.SUPPORTED_ELLIPSESCAP` to be `(ELLIPSESCAP1, )` on the server from now until all clients have upgraded. But that may still be annoying and error-prone for you to deal with. @pulkit, I suppose we should just add a `exp-narrow-2` capability to deal with this? It doesn't seem fair to make @idlsoft deal with it.
  
  Sounds like a good idea!
