Thank you for checking, Wenchen! Sure, we need to do that. Another question is "What can we do for 2.4.5 release"? Some of the fixes cannot be backported due to the technical difficulty like the followings.
1. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-26154 Stream-stream joins - left outer join gives inconsistent output (Like this, there are eight correctness fixes which lands only at 3.0.0) 2. https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/27233 [SPARK-29701][SQL] Correct behaviours of group analytical queries when empty input given (This is on-going PR which is currently blocking 2.4.5 RC2). Bests, Dongjoon.
