their mailing list (Heiko)
+ has been posted to the lists, there was some pushback
+ alpha end of May, UI freeze in July, so still some time
+ there likely won't be any huge changes in future either

until last minute is a nogo)
* could reuse the redesigned artwork whenever we make the switch

+ how to do it until we have such a checkbox?

not necessary
