--- Comment #11 from Egmont Koblinger <egmont at gmail dot com> ---
To clarify my previous comment:

If compatibility is a concern then let's go with 1, I'm absolutely fine with
that.

If compatibility is not such of a concern, it feels to me that -1 is a more
reasonable choice than 0.

Basically, out of the three possibilities 0 is the one I find the least
reasonable. As for the other two, my guts feeling tell me to go with the
backwards compatible 1, however, you guys have way better arguments pro or con
than guts feeling so I cannot join that discussion.
