Are they 100% API compatible? 100% binary compatible? Because unless
you can guarantee a yes to both then somebody somewhere DOES NEED to
have both installed while their other applications catch up with the
porting. And that may be a long time if they're still using a legacy
app built against 0.18 and not actively being maintained.
I get these problems all the time with library updates. Being able to
"slot" them and have both versions installed at once makes life so much
easier.
