[One would hope that this list does not turn into a Microsoft
release/product discussion mailing list (?) ]

Without going into specifics of A certain O.S., does it suffice to
require that iSCSI not break existing legacy SCSI applications ?

If the above is a valid requirement, then, knowing that legacy
applications continue to use SCSI-2 Reserve/Release and the target reset
as a mechanism of breaking SCSI-2 reservations, should'nt iSCSI continue
to support the target reset ?
