Drupal major versions like 5.x or 6.x will try hard not to break any
APIs be it JavaScript or PHP APIs, just as it has been in all the
years. Otherwise contributed modules would break. This is especially
important now that we have more JavaScript and more modules relying on
a certain API in jQuery.
