Sync'ing to the same number is good, but I'm ambivalent about
jumping the number.  On the one hand, this is significantly
different than previous versions, but on the other - at the
actual API level, it's still the same (with more features).

I'd like to actually remove some of the Tcl API crap that I
think has been around for eons (all the Get|SetVar*, Append*).
These things do truly expose some Tcl C APIs (all the old
string-only ones), but to what purpose?

Maybe I'm being anal about cleaning up a few useless APIs,
but I certainly think there are more we should add (I'd like
to more efficiently tie Tcl and Perl's IO stuff together).
