### Finer stickability controls for OneShot
The [OneShot plugin](doc/plugin/OneShot.md) gained finer stickability controls, one can now control whether the double-tap stickiness is enabled on a per-key basis. See [UPGRADING.md](UPGRADING.md#finer-oneshot-stickability-control) for more information.

### A way to slow down Unicode input
In certain cases we need to delay the unicode input sequence, otherwise the host is unable to process the input properly. For this reason, the [Unicode](doc/plugin/Unicode.md) gained an `.input_delay()` method that lets us do just that. It still defaults to no delay.

### More control over when to send reports during Macro playback
There are situations where one would like to disable sending a report after each and every step of a macro, and rather have direct control over when reports are sent. The new `WITH_EXPLICIT_REPORT`, `WITH_IMPLICIT_REPORT` and `SEND_REPORT` steps help with that. Please see the [Macros](doc/plugin/Macros.md) documentation for more information.

### LED-ActiveModColor can be asked to not highlight normal modifiers
The plugin was intended to work with OneShot primarily, and that's where it is most useful. To make it less surprising, and more suitable to include it in default-like firmware, we made it possible to ask it not to highlight normal modifiers. Please see the [LED-ActiveModColor](doc/plugin/LED-ActiveModColor.md) documentation for more information.

- [Atreus](doc/plugin/Hardware-Technomancy-Atreus.md): All known variants of the original Atreus are supported. From the Legacy Teensy variant, through the pre-2016 PCB with an A* MCU, the post-2016 PCB, and FalbaTech's handwired one too. Apart from the legacy Teensy variant, the other support both the A* or a Teensy as an MCU.

To make it easier to port Kaleidoscope, we introduced the [ATMegaKeyboard](doc/plugin/ATMegaKeyboard.md) base class. For any board that's based on the ATMega MCU and a simple matrix, this might be a good foundation to develop the hardware plugin upon.

### Color palette storage has changed
The [LED-Palette-Theme](doc/plugin/LED-Palette-Theme.md) had to be changed to store the palette colors in reverse. This change had to be made in order to not default to a bright white palette, that would draw so much power that most operating systems would disconnect the keyboard due to excessive power usage. With inverting the colors, we now default to a black palette instead. This sadly breaks existing palettes, and you will have to re-set the colors.

With inverting the colors, we now default to a black palette instead. This sadly breaks existing palettes, and you will have to re-set the colors.
We also changed when we reserve space for the palette in EEPROM: we used to do it as soon as possible, but that made it impossible to go from a firmware that does not use the plugin to one that does, and still have a compatible EEPROM layout. We now reserve space as late as possible. This breaks existing EEPROM layouts however.
### EEPROM-Keymap changed Focus commands
