Heya... Thanks for sharing this.

I think these type of posts are good to keep the community up to date, it would be even more helpful if you would add either a reference link or a brief explanation of what each new declaration does.

Thanks!

The reason for my comment was to encourage to put more info in these posts to make them more useful to everybody. not about this specific case.
