The changes between major versions of Request Tracker are typically substantial and one usually wants the opportunity to test an installation of the new version alongside the old version. If a user has made lots of local alterations (via RT's overlay system) they probably won't work without being updated to the new API. This method gives people a much easier upgrade path.
