The problems:
If any addon will update to a newer version of the lib it will always cause troubles since the global namespace.
The lib designed to work as a standalone lib, however it looks dumb if you just add another folder to your addon, and not incude it inside. And other addons would blindly owerwrite this lib to their versions.
If you think the users will properly install/update and use this lib as a standalone nolib, thats not gonna work either.

Mainly thats why i went and any of my new addons i'll use my own dropdown functions with no global access and whatsoever. However currently i still have 3 old addons which depending on this lib.

Now i wonder how the hell did nobody reported this issue for me for 5 months?
