We're not talking about breaking compatibility, but about fixing it.
I agree we shouldn't break compatibility for no reason, but I think that
preserving backward compatibility is a waste of our time in such a context.
Of course, if Hrvoje wants to distribute his package separately and wants it
to work with Emacs-20, that's perfectly fine and not necessarily a waste of
time, but emacs-devel has a different focus.
