I'd say the goal is to avoid breaking things unnecessarily, but
there might be some side-effects of design changes (UTF-8, this
Fl_Scroll stuff) which may require small code changes.

That said, I don't know how much existing code exists that tries to
directly manipulate the child() array of a Fl_Scroll widget.
