Just the other day, we almost had to fallback to 9iR2 from 10gR2. A graphical interface, written in the Coldfusion language, did not support 10g. Our developer found a workaround at the last minute. This is something that did not come up during testing. Lesson: Make sure your test plan is thorough...check with all vendors (including peripheral products) to assure their software is compatible.
