You're not mistaken, but no so many features will be left out of 2.6.
Some of them can be easily replaced by newer ones (for example, IDE-SCSI
was used mainly for CD-Burning, but now you can use direct ATAPI
CD-Burning), and some will be superseded by newer versions, like LVM2 or
EVMS.
The problem with ide-scsi is that it's needed for tapes.
Burning is easy.
