So this release is going to be the royal pain release to upgrade to? Not
good. People may just not upgrade at all in that case.

My datasets aren't complicated enough to trigger some of these problems;
people who have complex datasets need to report all failures so that we can
at least write a sed/perl/awk script to massage the things that need
massaging, if it can be done that easily.
