The general policy is to not introduce backwards incompatible changes to
stable releases:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fesco/Updates_Policy/#stable-releases

I am thinking that the best way for this would be to announce it as a
self-contained change so it'll land in rawhide (F41). In the meantime, I
can perhaps keep a COPR repository for stable Fedora releases (F39/F40)
for users that do want to use taskv3 already.

How does that sound?
