Disclaimer: compatibility is not black and white, especially in these
cases. We need to make decisions based on the impact we can imagine on
users, so it's certainly subjective. That said:

I think it works fine as a bug fix.

I agree that a new version would be better.

The main difference for me is that even if it's arguable, you could
build a working template relying on the current behavior (having a
template returned by a function).
If you find a way to keep the current behavior *and* have the one you
expect, then I can see it as a bug fix.
