Well it's always somewhat at the inconvenient side for us who maintain a big codebase.

On the other hand, when it's easy to find and fix all the places where the change did happen (like in this case), it's not that bad. Nevertheless changes which can't be easily found in sources (like e.g., the “foo?[]:... ” of late), can be a real PITA.

All the best,
