If you have a rooted Android device, don't rush to install 4.3

If you have a rooted Android device, I recommend against rushing to
install Android 4.3 for now. It appears that 4.3's new protection
model may require re-rooting devices in various situations (and
require a new, rather kludgy su workaround for now at least), and
unless you have some reason to push through 4.3 quickly (which is a
relatively minor update in most other respects) I would suggest
holding off until best practice procedures have been developed and
promulgated. If you don't root your devices, you won't care about
this, and you can jump to 4.3 immediately and happily.
