Yes, there were a number of very good technical reasons to do so,  
chief among them being that latex should indeed inherit from tex.  
This way, you can use text.tex to target all tex flavors, like LaTeX,  
ConTeXt etc.

The release notes mention the change btw. (Yes I know, not everyone  
reads the release notes ;) )

Yes I'm afraid so, you'll have to change the scopes of your custom  
commands from text.latex to text.tex.latex, or text.tex if you think  
your command is not restricted to latex exclusively. Rest assured,  
that this is not something likely to happen again. We knew it would  
inconvenience some users, but it was something that needed to be  
done. It should have been done all along when these scopes were first  
created.
There were a couple of other slight scope changes that could cause  
problems, namely the scope for citations is now meta.citation.latex.  
So I would suggest checking all custom commands to make sure their  
scope selectors are what they should be,  based on where those  
commands are supposed to be triggered.
