@jeffwidman @kbukum1 (or any other maintainer): Can this be merged please ?

[Greesb]

(all those changes are just rebase, no real change from the beginning)

@JamieMagee Thanks the approval. Can we merge it ?

Also, for minor upgrades like this would it be possible to make a script to auto upgrade the max supported version ? It seems trivial and would benefit a lot of people i guess. Having to wait more than 2 weeks for a minor upgrade like this is really annoying.

@Greesb Unfortunately, I don't have merge rights
