It's about a month shy of the 5 year anniversary of the releases of
the LucasArts SCUMM games on Steam. In those past few years, we
haven't had any issues with that except from users frustrated that
they couldn't play those games in ScummVM:

And then we just had other users write up their own patches anyway:

I'm completely in favor of a change to our policy on these games. At
this point, even the HE SCUMM games on Steam use ScummVM. We should be
supporting them out-of-the-box just like all the other games.
