You are rightly confused.
The original Pull Request is about the epsg-hsql module.
Andrea mentioned the jdbc-h2 module. I think this is the start of the
confusion. I didn't spot the difference either until you mentioned it.
What I said about maintaining backwards compatibility still stands.

A little confused here... are we talking h2 or hsql? The pr doesn't seem to
touch h2 at all unless i am missing something.
Regardless i agree that any upgrade requiring a migration like this we need to
be careful of. I would say keep pegged to a version we know is safe but also
try to allow for users to manually upgrade if they want to.

I had concerns also.
While not nuclear bomb-like, backwards compatibility came to mind.

Peter thinks this one is fine, I look at it and see a nuclear bomb ready to
explode.
In order to upgrade this one we also have to upgrade the dependencies in
GeoServer and GWC and make sure the upgrade path is smooth (the database format
changed a few times and it's the reason why we haven't upgraded so far).
Not against it, but who's going to put the work to do all the tests and
eventually perform code changes that might be required for a smooth transition?
I can already tell you it's not going to be automatic unless some code is
written:
