Thanks for your patch, the changes track besides maybe some wording
improvements, but not sure how much this really helps, as it probably
would only guard against unticking the "nesting" checkbox on CT
creation, but not be visible when one updates a existing old CT without
nesting from inside the CT to a newer distro release that then requires
nesting. I asked some follow-up questions to the reporter on BZ to try
to better understand what they meant and what would have helped them.
