We have never made an incompatible change to the script states format. I fully intend to not break it.That said, it doesn't belong in a database, IMO. Database storage makes it so much harder to autoclean and maintain them. Script crossing is already implemented and has been for a while. They get transferred properly in that case.
Personally, I think they're fine just where they are.
