The benefit of this change to people running stable releases is just as 
great as for those running devel. Arguably moreso, as we actually 
instruct people to enable proposed to test updates. There's a strong 
case for making that far less risky.

I can see a case for trying to anticipate any scripts which might break 
though, and/or trying by enabling *one* stable release to see how it 
goes. And there's documentation to update as previously mentioned in 
this thread. This will probably want to be squared off before enabling, 
so it may well make sense to do dev first and stables some time later 
on.

Thanks a lot to Colin for working on this. 💚

Cheers,
