AFAIK counting the number of objects was explicitly removed so the programmer would see how ineffective it is (e.g. you have to do select count(*) from (%subquery%)).

Of course doing a major release would break every single library if it's not updated. That's the idea of the major realeses in SemVer.

I actually like the new style of doing queries, though.
