Sorry, I should have been more specific: I mean that there are still 
2.4.0 targeted "enhancements" that would mean a format change. I take it 
that those need to be considered first.

I would not only take the number of changes into account but also 
desirability and feasibility.

For example, some might just be ready to be committed, then I fail to 
see why there should be another years long wait to get them in, if they 
are desirable.

Anyway, I posted a list which might be a better basis for discussion.
