Well, we have not changed the procedural textures in years!! <br>
I don't like the argument that developers should stop doing changes
just due to documentation. <br>
Improving our current procedurals is really needed, and some changes
there won't hurt. <br>
<br>
We always have to make sure we do better. If these changes simplify
code and usability, do it. <br>
And I agree with Daniel and Brecht here, we have some textures that
nearly do the same, unifying them is a good way forward. <br>
And again, it's not that we change such things every few weeks. ;-)

And yes, 2.5 wreaked havoc, but the benefits far outweighed any
documentation problems. As for reorganizing the textures, well,
that can be debated, cost vs. benefits. <br>
<br>
And, beginners don't follow development, or read release logs. <br>

If a Tutorial is done with 2.60, it's nice if it's still
100% accurate for 2.61, but imho this should not restrict us
from doing changes. We have to document the changes well in
the release logs and then it is fine. <br>
<br>
You could bring the same argument for lots of changes
actually. Should we not have done 2.5, because compared to
2.4 all the buttons are elsewhere? ;-) <br>
