Medium Foot and 5.01

We are looking for your opinions on a possible modification to the rules re Medium Foot.

At the moment MF
1) Are at - POA vs mounted in open terrain. (i.e. the mounted get a + POA)
2) Do not have a - POA vs HF in the open, but instead have a -1 cohesion test modifier if in close combat vs HF in the open.

One possible way of beefing up bowmen (and other medium foot), would be to replace both the above with

-1 cohesion test modifer if MF in close combat vs HF or mounted in the open.
I was hoping to see this trialled in the latest re-write. Is it still under consideration or has it been dropped?

Thureophoroi and similar have a pretty tough time otherwise againsy any mounted in the open.

We are still mulling over the best way to deal with MF vs mounted. One of 3/4 live debates on the authors forum at present.
