I appreciate your input.
Your reasoning might be valid for C++, but remember that there are more
language bindings for UNO.
Thanks for your input. But I would still think that C++ is probably the
pickest of all the languages UNO has bindings for, especially when it
comes to ABI compatibility. In other words, the other languages are
probably more relaxed about the change I was considering above.
Then another killer: Even if it would work that new producers now
produce enlarged struct instances and old consumers can still read them,
it would not work that old producers produce original struct instances
and new consumers expect to read them as enlarged ones.
