It is possible (of course). There are quite a few user-exposed interfaces
that need changing (f.x. all the GeneralVector::set/get methods, since it
would be strange to just change the get methods).

And it may be a lot of grunt work. But I'll have a go at it if you say
that's the way to go (even if it requires change to user code).
