It's completely not his responsibility to either warn you or test it with any 3rd party addon.

I think an apology is in order don't you?

I may have overstated my case a little but no, don't think so.
In my defence I will clarify my meaning.... If you (any coder) were to produce a VERY popular product, which you know has 3rd party addons/plugins (which should be fairly obvious) and you were then to change the very structure or code architecture of your original product, would'nt you feel even a little morally obliged to inform people that the addons/plugins may not work correctly until they themselves have been updated?
I'm pretty sure I would.
