Through v3 API development, we have found a lot of the existing v2 API
input validation problems. but we have concentrated v3 API development
without fixing the problems of v2 API.

After Icehouse release, v2 API would be still CURRENT and v3 API would
be EXPERIMENTAL. So should we fix v2 API problems also in the remaining
Icehouse cycle?
