Isn't this the exact reason GOG was founded in the first place? How is this new?

edit: to be clear, I'm fully in support of this. I've just been under the assumption they've always done this.

I guess this is just a 100% confirmation for software that has required manual intervention from their team, and isn't just a re-host of the 'warts and all' original.

I think they've earned the brag though.

This is what they've done since day one.
