No objections? If this is the case, we can just create the Upgrade page and
start just referencing it.

Regarding 4.1.3, I do not really like the bug fixes/enhancements texts - this
are just patch names, people without deeper knowledge will not be able to
understand what we actually fixed.

I.e., I would rather change:

"winsync: fixed password sync" --> "PassSync plugin could not update
synchronized users due to too strict access control"
