plugin-shims in ranger-0.5

About adding shim packages in ranger-0.5.0

ranger-hbase-plugin-shim

ranger-hdfs-plugin-shim

ranger-hive-plugin-shim

ranger-kafka-plugin-shim

ranger-knox-plugin-shim

ranger-storm-plugin-shim

ranger-yarn-plugin-shim


Considering ranger-0.5 was released  on June 10, 2015

(
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/RANGER/Apache+Ranger+0.5.0+-+Release+Notes
)

Would it have been better if shim packages were introduced in 0.5.1 or
0.6.0 rather than in 0.5.0 post release?

The changes look too large to go into a version that had been released
about 4months before the introduction of these shims.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Dilli
