As I developer I understand the perspective you're talking about. As I developer I will only support the newest version, and possibly one or two legacy branches of an app. If someone emails me about a bon supported version issue, I do what nearly every other dev does; tell them to update to the newest version or figure out a solution themselves. I do NOT force software onto their computer, nor cause full screen popups demanding they update. That is incredibly invasive, and not worth the trouble for either of us.
