Yes. I specifically broke the code that actually changes how multipathd
operates from a user' point of view into a seperate patch (4/4) because
distributions might need to revert in, if they want to pull in recent
upstream changes, but don't what this kind of change in multipathd's
behavior.

I admit, this patchset needs to include documentation to mention the
changed behavior. I'll add that.  But I'm not sure what to make of the
list below.  I don't see any code in it that I didn't think about.  We
can disagree as to whether, for instance, dmmp_reconfig() should do a
full or a weak reconfig. But without some more information, I'm not sure
what you are asking of me.
