I already started this migration (you can find the code here [1]). I
was planning to rework this series to make the eccpos definition mimic
what's done for oobfree (as suggested by Brian) before sending it, but
I'm not sure when I'll be able to do that, so if you really need that
quickly I suggest you submit those patches instead of reimplementing
it yourself.

Best Regards,

Boris
