They're also much less frequent than the rate we ship releases these days,
with things like SXDE & Indiana being released as snapshots of the
under-development-minor-release branch, so that even Uncommitted interfaces
in those releases are effectively Volatile until we finally decide to set
the "minor release done" flag, committing to those Uncommitted interfaces
for the lifetime of that branch, but free to break in the new development
branch being started at that point.
