Description

Description of the new feature / enhancement

In the spirit of semantic versioning, we want to identify issues that are potentially breaking changes to consider for a future 2.0 release. This list is not a commitment for what would be in a 2.0 release, but rather to identify candidates. This list may be amended over time, and any issues not taken into a 2.0 release should be moved to a similar Issue to identify a future 3.0 release.

Research direction

Review the candidate issues and discussions listed in #2128, including #715, discussions/2106 and 2112, and issue #2972. Clarify which breaking changes belong in a future 2.0 release and document the agreed candidate list; completion is not defined until the project decides how this tracking issue should be maintained.
