Who needs it? 
For now it's not on my personal agenda as the fixes are good and moving to 
3.2.0 is for me personally just a signal to our users that they should not 
blindly do an upgrade without a small test run first. The changes are really 
subtle, but again, they _might_ break in some edge cases. For vast majority of 
people it will be a drop in replacement.
