Dhalsim to receive damage increase, better hit box on C. Viper's crouching Medium Kick and more - potential Ultra Street Fighter 4 changes

Earlier today our correspondent on the scene Jason24cf posted numerous potential character changes being made in Ultra Street Fighter 4 over on Twitter. According to Jason, this information was divulged by a reliable source in the fighting game community.
Since it has not yet been confirmed by an official Capcom representative, these character changes are still considered speculation. Having said that, the following tweaks aren't very far fetched and appear completely reasonable.
If these changes are indeed in Ultra Street Fighter 4, it is still possible that they are not finalized. Last week Combofiend stated that any changes in USF4 could be reverted if they prove to be too restrictive.
Check them out below and let us know what you think. Hit the jump to check out the remainder of the potential changes and Jason's original tweets.

Also viper got a minor nerf. BK has a little more recovery. If you hit her on startup bk, she is grounded so you can still combo her
