 ## Changes to libraries
 
 * The data-flow library has been improved, which affects and improves most security queries. The improvements are:
-  - Track flow through methods that combine taint tracking with flow through fields.
-  - Track flow through clone-like methods, that is, methods that read contents of a field from a
-    parameter and stores the value in the field of a returned object.
