+1 but with Nathan's suggestion of using a new name and keeping the old data.

Hilary Egan has issued PRs to yt and yt-doc for a very nice set of absorption line fitting tools.  The recipe provided works really well with a small cosmology simulation, but the ones we have up now are missing some key physics (H/He chemistry and a UV background) that make the output from the recipe look quite poor.

Additionally, none of the existing recipes that use this data will change.  I think there will also probably be more analysis_modules coming in the future that will benefit from using a slightly more sophisticated example dataset.
