Import and export are used in three possible scenarios: 1) Import into fossil, discard old repository 2) Export from fossil, discard fossil repository 3) Fossil is one end of a bi-directional bridge The first two cases are one shot, thus there is no backwards compat to be concerned about. The third case should also not be a problem for existing setups because master being renamed to trunk has already happened, so master doesn't exist here. So I'm pretty sure the proposed change only affects new setups.
