Which plugins do you expect not to work anymore, and why?

2.8 will not be able files from 2.10 using new features (naturally).
I believe files produced with 2.10 which _does not_ make use of
2.10-only features can be opened in 2.8. Correct me if I am wrong.
2.10 will be able to open all 2.8 files, of course.
