please note that there is a strong backwards compatibility. For example, G6
option names are still valid (if possible) thanks to this file:

https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass/trunk/lib/gis/renamed_options

which is used internally to translate from G6 to G7, so you can use G6
option in G7.

Some removed G6 modules are available in Addons, for example r.los.

I would rather suggest identifying the differences in scripting API and
trying to introduce backwards compatibility if it is missing. Feel free to
open a ticket for the individual issues, so we can solve them on case to
case basis.
