Perhaps you should ask the inverse question too: what 2.5 features do you find so compelling that you are willing to break compatibility with 2.4 ? FWIW, the only new 2.5 feature I have been using in practice is the conditional expressions, and I could easily live without them. 2.4 is still pretty decent, and a major upgrade from 2.3.
