Right now, holding it off won't break any code not relying on an 
unreleased version of the compiler. Releasing it, then having to 
make changes will break code though. There were plenty of 
discussions about UDA stuff that never really got fully resolved. 
For example, whether only specific types should be allowed to be 
used as annotations. These things should have been fully decided 
before UDA's were implemented, because otherwise we may end up 
with an inferior approach for the sake of not breaking code, or 
breaking code because a feature was not fully fleshed out before 
being released.
