Oops. I forgot even about myself.

After upgrading, users need to usually deal with changes within the text 
configuration files.  As few changes as needed, is usually preferable else 
people spend needless hours merging text changes.

Probably worth a mention within the site you mentioned, but even I'm less 
hesitant to waste time on this now -- unless there's a major backing.
