I also committed a version bump for bpmnlint-plugin-camunda-compat to 2.51.0, which contains:

• FEAT: deprecate embedded forms on start events (feat: deprecate embedded forms on start events bpmnlint-plugin-camunda-compat#240)

The deprecation message itself is generic and doesn't need any adjustments, so it's just a routine version bump.

OK but I will need to update the properties panel too in that case as one cannot even try out the new rule on the test setup.

@AlekseyManetov We'd need an adjustment for start event forms though:

I'd rather keep it short: Only supported in Camunda 8.3 or newer. We already have this pattern in this library.

@claude[agent] shorten this to use not supported message helper. Adjust the test.

Done in 6374ab5. Changed to use getNotSupportedMessage('', allowedVersion) helper function, which produces "Only supported by Camunda 8.3 or newer." message. Test updated accordingly.

Just as a heads up, I was blocked by some firewall rules while working on your feedback. Expand below for details.

Works for me! I squashed the commits and re-wrote the messages as feat.
