I'd say that when backward compatibility is broken the manager version 
announcement should reflect that, so we can be sure of what's happening. 
Lots of people depend on certain behaviour for their applications, so 
they should at least be able to detect that things will be funky from 
now on.

I'd even appreciate a way to maintain backward compatible behaviour for 
a certain period of time to support a migration path for all dependant 
applications. Your idea of running a second manager module (and a second 
manager port) with the new syntax is a _really userfriendly_ approach.
