VDA works fine for somebody who are not using quotas, but IGNORE will 
make Postfix 2.6 useless for those, who are using VDA on mailservers 
leaving them without any working solution.
So I propose big warning message befor + after installation of Postfix 
with VDA enabled instead of IGNORE and create postfix25 when time permits.

Warning message sould be something like this:
WARNING: You are installing Postfix with VDA, but this version doesn't 
work correctly with quotas!
If you want VDA with quota support, use version of Postfix older than 2.6.
