Hello Devs,

As far as I know it's not a refactoring of the old macro because some
parameters / parameters behaviour was not kept 100%. It's missing some
features, basically. Adding some with the cost of removing others.

So if we consider it a new version of the old one, installing an "upgrade"
will break the behaviour. You'd tell me we could wait to release the new
version it only when ready, but then people could not take advantage of its
features (which are cool).

We could have it as a new extension until we implement all the features of
the old one, and then we mark it as implementing the same feature so that
the old one could be upgraded to the new one.

Anca
