Are you sure of this? AFAIK, upstream provided upgrade paths through 
kconf_update, as always. And if something broke, it was a bug, not a 
deliberate decision.

Of course there is always room for improvement, but I think that the problem 
is not intention, but lack of time and resources.

Don't confuse not caring with not having time. :-(
