#5561. When a .grc file behaves differently due to being opened on different GRC version

This work is related to Github Issue 5561.

1. Do research with community to understand what they do when this happens currently.

I've put together a short survey to ask users for their experience of this situation, what behaviour was caused, how they dealt with it.

Based on the results of that research we create some notifications with advice on how to deal with it.

2. Analysis of the survey quantitative data being done using a collaborative online whiteboard called Miro. You're welcome to leave comments on the Miro board.

3. Write the draft support documentation. Send it to the UX group and to the mailing list for contributions or comments.

4. Do UX design for notification.

#5527. Making it easier for GRC users to find the tutorials

This is being tracked in Github Issue 5527. The design work is done, but it's not yet implemented.
