Enum Subtypes Can No Longer Be Extended

You can no longer add symbols to an extended enum. This is because if an enum is subtyped and the subtype attempts to add additional symbols that aren't legal values enumerated in the supertype, that "is-a" relationship no longer holds.

Required Justification for Capsule Permissions

If you are requesting permissions in your capsule-info.bxb, you must now provide a localized justification using the requested-permissions key, which is then presented to the user:

capsule-info {
  ...
  requested-permissions {
    ...
    permission (user-profile-access) {
      justification (Your location will be used to find restaurants nearby)
    }
  }
}
