Yes, exactly. Though users are sort of expected to read "Incompatible
changes" sections of NEWS, not all do and it is easy to misunderstand
the real relevance of each section.
It is very easy to miss, since it is under incompatible _Lisp_ changes
making one think it only matters if you're touching Lisp code. If
anything, this should be under "Changes in Emacs", with a big blurb of
what happens, and how to restore the existing behaviour to exactly how
it was before.
Anyway, I sometimes toy with the idea of proposing doing this much
more conservative remapping by default.
(global-set-key [remap just-one-space] 'cycle-spacing)
But even this would probably set off alarms in someone's
workflow.
Don't we have eough hornets ... but that one seems nice since it
doesn't break the "normal" case?
