incompatible.  Matúš, can you please manually list your relevant past 
changes at 
<https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/4.3#API_changes> and 
add "[API CHANGE]" to the commit messages of relevant future changes (to 
allow for semi-automatic tracking)?

I've found 8, and added them to the wiki.

Thanks,
Matus
