You are right, I changed the code to fallback to the old captcha.
This should work but I think it is a bit rush to drop legacy captcha support in J7. We only have Proof of Work captcha from 6.1, and developers have no clue how new captcha plugin looks like before. I think most of captcha plugins still use legacy structure these days and will need to be re-written to be compatible with J7.
