Wouldn't this be an unexpected change to existing sites on update?

Maybe. For me it is a bug fix.

Not disputing if its a bug or not I;m just thinking of the sites built with the existing behaviour and would they expect to see the layouts of their sites change in a minor release

Agree, it makes too many override warnings in a minor version. Closing for now.

Just to add for future consideration that without automated updates its even more important to ensure we don't change an existing site. Post-installation notes, guided tours and override change notifcations only work if someone knows that an update has been performed
