In other words, support both "black" and "block", and "white" and "welcome", for at least 3 months, I suggest.

The bug report that introduced this change claimed 100% backward compatability for at least one year, later changed to until 4.0 came out, whenever that will be.

You're misreading that. Backwards compatibility in the code will be maintained for at least one year after the 4.0 release, when the code changes take effect, and would not be removed until 4.1 is released if it has not been released by that point (which is unlikely - 4.0 and 4.1 released within one year?). So if 4.1 was released within a year of 4.0, it would include backwards compatibility and that would remain until at least 4.2

Unfortunately some rule name changes are making it out ahead of the 4.0 release. We're working on addressing this, it should be a temporary condition.

  Back in 1969 the technology to fake a Moon landing didn't exist,
  but the technology to actually land there did.
  Today, it is the opposite.                               -- unknown
