are relatively strict keeping our new core code backwards compatible

Well it sort of does come free, just most people don't seem to use it.
We already have "/tags/RELX_YY_Z/extensions" (and "/tags/extensions"
if they don't follow release numbering schemes (Example here are the
Semantic* exts)) as well as "/branches/RELX_YY/extensions" where
developers can keep extensions in a state to support BC with that
version whilst integrating new features, One example of a dev doing
this is the one working on the Favourites extension.
