I finally upgraded my WP sites to 2.7 today (I know, a bit late, I've been busy), and in one of my sites, I had problems due to a change to the wp_list_categories function.

On that site (which isn't a blog but a database of bicycle trails), I have one category called "News" (id=1), and then all the other categories are children of category "Trails" (id=3). In WP 2.6 and previous versions, my sidebar used to say
   wp_list_categories("exclude=3")
and it would list the News category only, excluding the vast hierarchy of Trails categories. After upgrading to 2.7, with no changes to the theme, it only excluded the top-level Trails category, and left everything underneath listed there, which was a mess. I was able to fix it by doing
   wp_list_categories("include=1")
so it wasn't a huge deal...

But what I was wondering is, was this change intentional? We should probably at least document it, or else (which I think is preferable) fix it back to the way it used to be.

Thoughts?
