Comment(by strk):

 I can confirm this myself. Now we have some problem in that:
 - upgrading from 2.0 to 2.1 must DROP the type
 - upgrading from 2.0 to 2.2 must NOT DROP the type

 Automating this will require the definition of a label to use (like the
 Availability one) for representing the need to pre-drop a type before re-
 creating it.

 That is, we currently say that he availability for "summarystats" is 2.2,
 but instead it was also available in 2.0. Maybe a "Changed" (although not
 strictly true) could do.
