Rony G. Flatscher commented on BSF-14:
--------------------------------------
In principle I would agree, of course.
The reason why I have never tackled this was the impossibility of overviewing
how BSF has been deployed. In theory it is possible that some applications
would take advantage of these fields not being final. Therefore (once burnt,
always shy) I have gone with the simple, but extremely imporant rule: "never
change a running program" (and in this case a framework, unless there are
reasons, that make it acceptable that currently deployed applications break).
In this particular case I might be way too wary.
