Following semantic versioning, we are at liberty to (completely) break the API's backward compatibility although I realize that the draft has different ideas about that. Seeing how many years have passed since it was drafted, I guess a more radical approach _might_ be in order.
I don't know any details here so I could totally misunderstand things but "break ... backward compatibility" looks a bit scaring to me so I like to ask if I understand things at least basically right: Would it mean that existing frontends could no longer work because of "broken backward compatibility"? Could it mean that new frontends (for the new API) would no longer work with old backends that implement the old API?
