Yes, sorry.  But for some reason (probably because I remembered your
name from some previous posts) I assumed you had followed the discussion
here in the past few months.  My mistake.  For this release (the 0.9.9,
leading to 1.0) we decided to leave backward compatibility and to fix a
number of design issues that we felt were just wrong.  From 1.0 onwards,
backward compatibility will be maintained.  Apologies for the problems
this may cause, but as we approached 1.0 we felt it was better not to
take forward too much of our cruft...
