We try not to break things just to break them... and let us know if you 
have any ideas for improving the API usability. Any suggestions will be 
reviewed, and we have a list of changes we want to do in 4.4 already 
(and we can't do them now because of lack of developer time).

There will be a few more very minor changes coming in the next beta, 
which you'll probably call boring as I can't imagine that any code is 
using the affected methods (mostly not yet implemented stuff which we 
might be able to find time to implement in some 4.3.x).
