Sorry, I guess I should have been clearer. My suggestion was to fix
some of the drivers where the domain can be determined, and for the
rest, just mark the old function as deprecated.
If that's still a terrible idea, well, okay. I'm just unsure that
simply hard-coding a 0 for the domain for some drivers is really a
solution. Don't we really want all drivers to properly support all domains?
