+
+The way that wiring together a catalog happens, has changed drastically. Now
+there is a new class `CatalogBuilder` that does almost all of the heavy lifting
+of how to augment/replace pieces of catalog functionality, such as adding
+support for custom entities or adding additional processors.
+
+As the builder was added, a lot of the static methods and builders for default
+setups have been removed from classes deep in the hierarchy. Instead, the
+builder contains the knowledge of what the defaults are.
