I wonder if this is really a feature - the only reason being that there are no user-visible changes (the feature page specifically says that the UI is out of scope due to resource constraints).

However, I think that this is a worthy goal, and much in need of doing. Obviously QA love will be needed for both common and uncommon install cases with this massive amount of change.
