First of all, thanks for the contribution.
I'm seeing backward incompatible as @roshannaik stated, and like renaming
class is not strictly necessary to. Huge part of maintaining open source is
fighting with backward compatibility. What you change will affect number of
developers. It's joyful thing for open source developers but also huge pain
point.
Unless there are critical places so need to change or get rid of, breaking
backward compatibility would not be accepted, and even it is really needed, it
would be better to discuss widely.
