What's new in SuperSU 2.72
SuperSU v2.72 BETA released
Premium
This is a relatively minor update. Support for the patching ChromeOS-wrapped Android boot images has been added (Pixel C), some logcat and fsck issues were fixed in the SELinux policy, and some flags have been added to the ZIP installer.
Force encrypt
Some recent devices do not get a signal - for reasons yet unknown - unless /data is encrypted. The SuperSU ZIP installer by default removes the forceencrypt flag from fstab, so you can run your device unencrypted if you want to. In some cases this may cause you to run unencrypted while you want to be running encrypted, such as on these recent devices. That is what the KEEPFORCEENCRYPT flag is for.
I am open to debate (in the BETA thread on XDA) as to whether the situation should be switched around, keeping the forceencrypt flag enabled by default, and have removing it be the case that requires extra action. It seems to me like those who want to run decrypted may be the more advanced users as well as the minority.
To clarify: the situation right now is still the same as in 2.71, there is now just the option to change the behavior. The point of discussion is whether that option should become the default in the future.
Compatibility
Not a day goes by since the release of 2.69 - sometimes not even an hour, or a full page in the thread - that somebody doesn't complain or ask about ES File Explorer or Secure Settings or whatever root app not getting root.
I want to emphasize again that these are bad apps that are hardcoding the path to the su binary. This has always been a bad idea and I have been warning against it since 2012.
In the early days of systemless root a compatibility mode hack was enabled by default, but this has been disabled since 2.69. It will not come back, because it's a bit of a dirty hack, and I'm not going to keep forcing millions upon millions of users running that hack just for a handful of outdated apps to work.
You can manually re-enable that compatibility mode by setting the BINDSYSTEMXBIN flag before re-flashing SuperSU, see forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66140836&postcount=5493
I suggest writing the authors of these apps to inform them that their apps will no longer work with SuperSU on Marshmallow by default, and ask them to fix their code. Said fix is generally one line or less, so there really isn't much of an excuse to not just fix it.

About SuperSU 2.72
SuperSU is the Superuser access management tool of the future ;)

Features include:
- Superuser access prompt
- Superuser access logging
- Superuser access notifications
- Per-app notification configuration
- Temporary unroot

The Pro version additionally offers:
- OTA survival mode (no guarantees)

SUPERUSER
This is meant to replace Superuser (if installed), you use either one or the other. You cannot combine them. Statements that this breaks Superuser are therefore completely nonsensical.
NOTICE: A SPECIAL PROCEDURE IS NEEDED FOR UNINSTALLATION. IF YOU DO NOT LIKE THE APP, DO *NOT* JUST UNINSTALL IT, YOU *WILL* LOSE ROOT.
Superuser access management runs through a so called "su binary". There can be only one of these at a time. So if you install SuperSU, your previous superuser access management solution will no longer operate. So if you want to switch back: (1) Open that application, and search for an option for it to install/update/replace the "su binary". (2) Confirm root-using apps are using the superuser solution you want. (3) Uninstall SuperSU.
