I think the main reason to do a release before 1.0.0 is if we want to make the change that would give a good error message for forward incompatibility (I think this could be done as 0.14.2 since it would just be clarifying an error message). Otherwise, I think including it in 1.0.0 would be fine (its still not clear to me if there is consensus to fix the issue).
