Sure but I have no idea how long it will take me to write the patch and test it and therefore whether it will be done for 3.1. ;) It isn't so much complicated as time-consuming going through all the classes. Then checking everything works afterwards.
I think that was rhetorical?

And as others already noted, I think we should focus on actually getting 3.1 done and not adding tones of "change something because it could be changed"...

Generally a +1 from me.

Also a big -1 for 3.1

I don't mind which version it goes into. If people are fine with breaking BC with every single class name in 3.2 then fine. I was just trying to preserve BC.

Ideally I would like to see a diff and then decide if it's something I want to include in 3.1.

The current code works. Community is waiting for 3.1 to come out to see what we've done with extensions. Another option is to make the entire 3.1 a preview release. We will obviously support upgrades from 3.0 to 3.1 to 3.2 for the core, therefore people running unmodified boards can install 3.1 and try it out. Extension authors can install 3.1 and figure out which events they need. Then we'll break compat between 3.1 and 3.2 with the intention that 3.2 is the version extensions will be targeting.

This has been merged now. All tests are working and basic functionality was also confirmed to be working manually, but I imagine we'll uncover some left over issues soon. I'll update area51 in the next few days as well to test it more thorougly in areas we lack functional tests.
