Is that a problem using Elasticsearch-dsl-py 7.4 with Elasticsearch version8?

I am using Elasticsearch and Kibana version 7.17.0 and panning to upgrade version 8.y.z.

My application use Elasticsearch and Elasticsearch DSL pyhton client with major version 7.

I know that the latest version of dsl-py is v.7.4.0 and v8 is not coming soon which is discussed in here too.

Now, I have a question that if es-py and dsl-py of major version 7 work fine with Elasticsearch v.8, is that safe keep using them in upgraded Elasticsearch v8?
The specific versions for each client is below.

elasticsearch==7.10.1
elasticsearch_dsl==7.3.0

Hello! Currently there is no version of Elasticsearch-dsl-python which natively supports v8.0 of Elasticsearch. For now you can enable the compatibility mode with the client to receive 7.x compatible responses when using Elasticsearch-dsl-python.
