Vtk 4.x to 5.x was one of those. My code broke with the 5.x release
BUT it was for the better. And more importantly I was given plenty
of notice that it was coming. The jump from 2.4 to 2.6 seems like
a good time to make the break and clean things up. As long as
there is a comprehensive list of breakage I don't think people
will have a real problem with it.
Sure, but when you moved from VTK 4.x to 5.x you got compile time
errors. If we change this, something will most likely silently fail.
What about doing the opposite of what Alex' patch did? What about
making Y, YES, 1, ON synonyms? It's more or less what Brandon proposed
but without introducing a BOOL(variable bool_value) command.
