I mean since it's an acceptable exception, since the core parts of RSpec
will still same, and autotest is somekind a "plus". Generating an major
change, will make people think that RSpec was changed, with a lot of new
features and etc... And it's not the case, in current case generate a major
change for 3.0 will make a lot of confusion for users. WDYT?
