Hi Maxim,
Since I have your attention, can you please take a look at this thread:

To summarize: we need a tool to "re-patch" a production database at the very end of an upgrade...
1. clone production store to dev server
2. upgrade dev server
3. when #2 is ready for production, move dev to production and then PATCH the live database as you take it live.
Version 4.5.5 upgrade removed the ability to do step #3. A live store can't be upgraded. Unless we have tools for #3, a live store will never upgrade.
