Comment:

 This falls well outside of WordPress' remit. If a plugin author is going
 to deploy a change which actually breaks websites, they need to do so
 responsibly (and preferably by adding an explanatory notification in a
 prior release).

 We're not going to introduce a method of marking an update as one which
 breaks sites.
