Hey Christian,

To round this thread out, I am +1 on the proposal. However, I don't think
it should be backported to the stable branch, mostly due to the
configuration migration that is needed. I think it is good practice to
require a new minor version change for that.

This will also give the change some time to settle on master.

-Justin
