Great! Bring him back post-Sundering.  You don't? Great! He's still dead!  In some ways it's nice to be able to have that kind of freedom, but I think for many of us its quite a shift away from how the Realms have been treated over the years and we're a bit gun shy about it, since we all expect a novel or campaign guide to come out at some point that contradicts whatever decisions we've made, thus forcing us to either not use that resource, retcon our campaigns or do a bit of work to modify the resource to conform to 'our Realms'.</blockquote>
