I'm generally ok with that, provided that the "held" property is spelled 
correctly (property names should normally be adjectives or nouns).  
However, the ensure => '<version>' idiom seems widely enough used that it 
should not be dropped without a deprecation / warning period.  Perhaps the 
same is true of 'held'.  I don't anyway think that a breaking change such 
as this can be released before the next major version.
