We should be clear that there are two different kinds of changes and
your post had references to both types:

1. changes to the user interface, e.g. what is being proposed here.
2. changes to the actual structure of org files, e.g. begin_latex
   becoming begin_export latex.

The first are inconvenient but usually (?) only for a short period of
time until finger memory has adapted.  The second can be much more
serious, leading to impact over quite a period of time, especially for
those that have accumulated many org files over years.
