I know that you should merge pacnew files first, I'm fine with the move, but something tells me we're going to see many users baffled by pacman throwing never-before seen errors. Not that I mind Arch being a less hand-holding distro and actually requiring common sense ;P

Your question is probably about signatures. We're not entirely there yet, but as pacman 4 brings lots of other fixes and improvements, it was a good idea to move it. If you want to use signed packages (and are okay that databases aren't signed yet, and not everything is signed), you can follow [1].
