I totally agree with that, but I think it's more about what we promised to
users than about what we think is the best practice they should follow.
For APIs, we probably promised backward compatibility across minor
versions. Even if we didn't explicitly promise this, doing otherwise would
probably upset users.
As to maven coordinates, that's kind of a grey area... I guess that, given
users have to change their maven coordinates (the version) when
upgrading anyway, the breaking artifact ID change may not be that bad. A
bit surprising, but not really harmful.
