Update Manager PowerCLI 6.0 against VUM 5.5?

Yes, the documentation states that the Update Manager PowerCLI 6.0 is only intended to be run against VUM 6.0.  Has anyone tried running it against a VUM 5.5 server though?  Any really broken behavior?

The reason I ask is that I would like to upgrade my PowerCLI environment to the newly released version, but then I found that the 5.5 version of the Update Manager PowerCLI wouldn't install.

We don't officially support managing VUM 5.5 with PowerCLI Update Manager 6.0 but having said that we did make some changes to enable you to connect to a previous version of the VUM server.  I would be interested if you hit any issues using the cmdlets against a 5.5 server.
