re-create managed package for GE and PE and transfer security review

I have a package on the AppExchange that has been installed in about 30 Enterprise+ Orgs.  I now want to make it compatible with Professional & Group Editions, but it contains workflow rules.  Is the best way to deal with this to create a new development Org, new namespace and new managed package?  Has anyone done this and had Salesforce transfer their security review?

 

Here is the process I think I need to follow in more detail:

 

1. Package up the components I want to carry forward in an Unmanaged Package

2. Create new Developer Org/Namespace and install the Unmanaged Package

3. Create new managed package and associate with existing LMO

4. Use "extension packages" and dynamic Apex for Enterprise+ features

5. Have existing customers uninstall my old package and install my new package

6. Petition Salesforce.com to move my security review to the new package

 

Ugh...  Any thoughts?  Any other pitfalls or obstacles I'm missing?

 

Thanks in advance!

Have you read this article on the same topic?

That article doesn't discuss the circumstance where you have already created a package that is not compatible with GE & PE editions and are looking for the best way to redo it.  I will certainly be taking that info into consideration when we do start re-creating the package.

 

We made our package over a year ago and I'm not sure if this article existing then.

 

Thanks though!
