This was a situation we needed to fix urgently. No, that was not a need for an urgent fix. AFAIU this was for a testing image for software under development. The new window switcher layout for PA is only integrated in current KWin master, which has not yet entered the testing phase. KWin itself does not yet support any configuration update from 4.8 to current master (see Bug 296775 [1]). The plan is to have one upgrade script to handle all changes in configuration - which could have included PA as well.
I understand that you had been concerned about the situation - and rightly you are: broken updates are an unpleasant experience. I am also not questioning the need for the change, but the workflow of how the change got introduced. And I see here potential to improve the situation which will go to the active mailinglist in a dedicated mail. Cheers Martin [1] https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=296775
