Your analysis is correct.

This commit is another grey area, especially given that the defaults
were changed to avoid the consequences users would really need these
options to work for. On balance, I'm happy adding it so I have done so.

It depends.

In this case it is correct that there isn't an equivalent commit for
8.0.x and beyond. The Mapper refactoring in 8.0.x removed the need for
the config attributes to be passed explicitly. In 8.0.x they can be
obtained when required from the Context.
