Yeah it's not supported to modify views. that said... We have some custom views, too. Prior to any patch or upgrade we save the views (right-click, script-view as, create to, editor window; save it); and then just re-create the view once the upgrade is complete.
Not supported doesn't mean it "won't work". Just that you accept the risk of doing that; and know exactly what you are doing, why, and how to undo your customizations if necessary.
