+  - 'abort_chain_on_error_fix' now defaults to true.  If this behavior
+    causes you issues, you can explicitly turn it off by setting it to a 
+    non true defined value (0 is a good option here).
   - When throwing an http style exception, make sure we properly flush the
     existing log and report other errors in the error stack.
