And I would recommend the opposite. If you are developing now and use
4.8, you will be developing with outdated and unsupported code.

WRT the functionality of the new order stuff, it requires a new
catalog order routing to work totally. It is *supposed* to work
with the old foundation, but assuredly if you have done custom
log_transaction or log_entry it may not.
