True. I never really liked it, but having another look at it now it doesn't
seem so bad after all.

Also true. I misread the diff.

And we are Germans and we like bureaucracy :-) Go ahead and commit the
stuff.
The only thing left about it that I don't like is the fact that it becomes
more difficult to find the page with the changes in 2.1.0. But that page
is important, because that is where all the noncompatible changes are
listed.
Should we maybe have an additional link in the navigation bar after all?
Or put a link to the 2.1.0 changes near the top of the 2.1.1 changes?
Ideas?
Best,
Oliver
