Yeah, we just don't have enough people ...

I have comments on a few of these:

TBH, I'd reject this one as not being worth the trouble.

And I'm dubious how many people care about this, either.

This is going to go in once the commit fest is done; we're just holding
off to avoid creating merge issues during the CF time crunch.

Perhaps we'll get some of the others done by the end of the week.
