Changing the mappings proved to have unexpected side-effects.
Because elasticsearch requires that all types in an index use the same field type for all fields with the same name timelion broke, because it had
hits: 'integer'
in it's mapping just like it was supposed to.This isn't something plugins should have to account for in a minor (or hopefully even a major) version change.
Changing the mappings is hard, and unless there is a good reason to change them we really shouldn't. When we do get there though we will need to use migrations to properly propagate the change.
