I very much agree here, given the nature of scripts (that is, being
very easy to update), I think we should try not to be too strict in
backwards-compatibility or we'll lose the flexibility that is very
much needed when developing a Good Product (tm) As long as such
compatibility breaking changes are marked (in BIG LETTERS) in the
changelog/release notes I think that would be a 'sacrifice' we should
consider making.
