Was that last line really necessary for your post?
The implicit looming flamewar here should be taken upstream. Fedora
policy is to follow upstream, wherever it may take us.
Just push the problems of changing API on regardless of the damage it
causes to users who will be running their own and 3rd party code?
The only reasonable way to ship changes that aren't backwards-compatible
once you have a user base is to allow multiple versions to run
concurrently so everyone can migrate their components separately and at
their own pace.
