Your issue has not been ignored but the problem is that the version of the blocker has not been added so it doesn't appear in a search for blockers in Lucene 9 :(
Do we need to discuss this again? I thought we discussed and agreed on increasing our backwards compatibility. My personal opinion is that it is a natural step for mature software that it is increasingly used in production environments. Regarding your concerns in the subject, there is a healthy discussion in the issue and there are sound proposals to ease the pain and they can be implemented any time, do you think it is still a blocker?
