Jeesh. Sure looks nice. Without knowing how fundamental the code changes are, it
is hard to say for sure, but I would think we would want to put this in, unless
it leads to major breakage. Someone would need to take the patches, merge them
all in as a group, and validate the regression tests to see where we are on them.
I'd even think it would be worth doing if it delays release a couple of weeks,
which it may not.
More comments??
