Not really cowboy, but stuff that needed to happen.  JBC 1.x had a confusing and occasionally incorrect API.

I do appreciate your concerns regarding backward compatibility though - and I agree that an appropriate translation layer should have been provided in JBC 2.x so it could be run in a "compatible" mode such that it could be dropped into applications written around 1.x.  

Jason has started a thread on the jbc-dev mail list to discuss backward compatibility in 3.0, and I'm going to start one to investigate the viability of an adapter package to allow 2.x (and 3.x?) to work in 1.x environments.  Stay tuned.  :-)
