This is not a proposal thread to introduce new tools and I would certainly 
avoid the “right way to do things” as I’m a fan of iterative development.

I’m interested in a concrete solution to the concrete issue I raised. Here’s 
how I will do it:

- Fix the issue on 4.3.1, cherry pick and get rid of the 4.3.0 to 4.4.0 upgrade 
path
- Put the db changes in upgrade path from 4.3.0 to 4.3.1, on 4.3 branch
- Add an upgrade path from 4.3.1 to 4.4.1 on 4.4 branch which counts for the 
above change
- On 4.4 branch, in the upgrade (db upgrader) map there won’t be an upgrade 
path from 4.3.1 for any class except for the map entry where version is 4.3.1
- Users who upgrade to 4.3.1 can upgrade only to 4.4.1 (they don’t have a 
choice) and the upgrade path will exist only in 4.4.1 and later releases

I think if I do the above, no one will have any issue. I’m sharing them to run 
by you all in case you find any issue?
