This is tricky since I think everyone is going to be affected by the change,
however I think the change will have a greater impact if we add/change new
names for the methods (which everyone is now used to) instead of only the
return type of the present methods. Since work has started on 2.2 this could
be seen as one of the improvements of that version and in order to make ones
own code work with 2.2 the (own) code will have to be changed to comply.
For what my opinion is worth, I'd say keep the method names and change the
return types.
