 Patch release based on testing by Dave Cornejo, Netgate
 
-### Minor changes
+### API changes on existing features (you may need to change your code)
 * Session-id CLI functionality delayed: "lazy evaluation"
+  * C-api: Changed `clicon_session_id_get(clicon_handle h, uint32_t *id)`
   * From a cli perspective this is a revert to 4.1 behaviour, where the cli does not immediately exit on start if the backend is not running, but with the new session-id function
   
 ### Corrected Bugs
+* Fixed: Pretty-printed XML using prefixes not parsed correctly.
+  * eg `<a:x>   <y/></a:x>` could lead to errors, wheras (`<x>   <y/></x>`) works fine.
 * XML namespace merge bug fixed. Example: two xmlns attributes could both survive a merge whereas one should replace the other.
 * Compile option `VALIDATE_STATE_XML` introduced in `include/custom.h` to control whether code for state data validation is compiled or not. 
 * Fixed: Validation of user state data led to wrong validation, if state relied on config data, eg leafref/must/when etc.
