To me, it's not a matter of "no solution" vs "perfect solution". It's a matter of baby steps.
Should we make demands and organize protests? Maybe it would work, or maybe it could have adverse effects, giving addon developers a bad name of rabble-rousers and drama queens. Pros and cons to weigh.
Should we contact Zenimax and ask for some better API, more docs, more obsoletion, more attention in general? Definitely, but they might (and probably will) not have the time and motivation to devote work-hours to us. But we already do that, in multiple feature/improvement/bug reports.
The fact that we DO have an API available and we DO have the ability to enhance the game is an additional benefit that's not in the official features and only a thin margin of user base makes any use of. I'm thinking we should make the best of it, as we always do - but keeping a reasonably low profile, not to antagonize people who in fact owe us nothing except the game as it is.
