I rather liked the brief comment in a recent post of yours where you
said that at this point we should only be accepting patches which
stabilize what has already been committed, rather than new features
which might require further stabilization. I don't know whether the
patch under discussion satisfies that test, but that should be the
main consideration at this point in the release cycle, in my view.

Of course, with anything this complex there will be gray areas where
people could have honest disagreement.
