Thanks for creating this ticket Xavier! It's definitely time to get serious about a version 4
Re the renaming of AtKey specifically: we should consider introducing a non-breaking change much sooner by changing AtKey's implementation so that it delegates everything to a new class (likely named AtRecord), and then deprecating AtKey. We could then fully remove AtKey in a version 4
If we want to migrate our signatures to records, this would be a good time to do it!
I want to consider removing KeyStreams in 4.0.0, my original intent for them doesn't really make sense given the work with AtCollections. I will need to take a closer look to confirm that they truly have no use-cases, but I believe that to be the case.
@gkc I know we originally discussed renaming AtKey to AtID, but all of our SDKs use the term AtKey now... it's worth bringing this topic up again.
Discussion & decision from architecture call:
I opened this ticket as a place to get ahead of the curve in terms of the next round of breaking changes.
The following comes to mind for this list: Renaming AtKey will cause a breaking change, but for the benefit of making the tech easier to understand. With that, we could rename at_client_mobile to at_client_flutter, and potentially other things that we think could be made clearer.
In addition, I'm nearly certain that there are other potential changes that I am not aware of, and it would be useful to list those here as well. Then, when the time comes to actually make the breaking changes, we will have a checklist ready to ensure that we don't miss anything on release.
