No, the rule is more "we should not break existing configurations". But
sometimes we do, unfortunately. And in many cases, I am the one
responsible for those changes that create incompatibility with existing
configurations.

Arnout recently added a "legacy" mechanism that should, in the future,
help in making such changes less painful.

Best regards,

Thomas
