Makes sense for clarity. I guess we should remove the public headers and change the symbol version all at once in '13'? This would instantly make all out of tree providers totally unworkable. Or go back to providing strong compat to the providers as Ben suggested.. In this case someone will have to vote for this with a patch to put the missing symbol back... I know mlx voted for the first path - Ira?
