Priorities must ultimately be set by end users. And I would repeat that the majority of end users would favour timely fixes of essential functionality over concerns how those fixes will render existing files. My only point in all this is one of priorities. By all means do whatever can be done to reduce any inconvenience of the new rendering, but don't use the compatibility issue as a block to essential fixes.

Thanks for the tip, I'll look into it.
