The regular esp32dev env is still using V3 IDF isn't it? Is the V4 bootloader backwards compatible with v3?

didnt notice that. according to the docs it shouldnt work.

The bootloader does not support booting apps from older versions of ESP-IDF.

https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/release-v4.3/esp32/api-guides/bootloader.html

but that bootloader has been there before my first PR which was in June 2023.
and i used the same bootloader on the test in the nightly and it works, so it is a v4 bootloader not just a strange name?.

since 2023 on the webinstaller.
i am able to install the 0.14.3 release and then OTA on the v4 nightly version...
