This seems like a good change to include in 5.0 as this kind of
library upgrade is more natural when the major version changes. It is
still possible to postpone it to 6.0, but the main concern here is
that the current version of

I came across another good thing that might help us to overcome the

change relates to the driver itself and reuses the same approach that
was used to deal with the d

Since the library upgrade need to happen sooner or later, I don't see
