If things are well documented, it all resumes for users doing a:

sed 's/break;/return;/g' ser.cfg > ser-new.cfg

IMO, it's better and easier to make a clean cut now, and document it well for 
everybody to be aware of it, than to do it halfway, and then later face the 
same problem, only this time when you have to switch from the half-done 
version to the final version. Either way at some point you have to break 
something.
