Is any risk so great that it exceeds pushing an untested fix? And if
it was tested in typical scenarios, couldn't the fact that it _will
break_ your working system have been clearly documented so people
could plan their update timing better? I'm not complaining about the
decision to make the change. I just don't see why the side effects
had to be a surprise.
