+1, well said.
+1 as well. I think these people would be perfectly find by it changing across a version upgrade as long as they know that's the deal. *Most* of the time there is no version upgrade going on, so it would work fine that time.
Most operations people already deal with a lot of such parameters changing around. I'm sure most of them would be more than happy with an improvement, even if it's not mathematically perfect.
