I agree.

I can make a lot of tests by using beta and more in a production 
environement, but only if an upgrade is possible without having a lot of 
work on the client-side also (eh, what about the suscription ?). This 
change means hours of work for the next upgrade ...

Same problem with any LDAP schema modification ... the update will be 
harder for people who are interested in testing and perhaps some will 
give up.

Perhaps it's time to make some definitive choices ... (apart from a 
really serious issue of course : security, data corruption, ...)

My 2 cents ...
