GeoServer upgrades are indeed meant to be uneventful, and all the tests
we run in GeoServer are actually running against older versions of data
directory
syntaxes (we just never needed to upgrade them to the current content of
the xml files.).

However, if people do not provide reproducible ways to trigger the problems,
there is nothing we can do to fix them

Personally I haven't encountered problems in normal project activity
