There are currently 20 "Needs Review" and 14 "Waiting on Author" things
left in the queue, so it's not quite that there's no time left. There
really isn't very much left to do on this. The rough consensus idea
from before takes a while to describe, but there was not a complicated
implementation in that. The overlap with the still possible to commit
SET PERSISTENT is probably the worst potential issue this is facing now,
but that's not even a real issue yet.

If you're out of time to work on it and want to back out of here having
made good progress, that's fine. I'd be tempted to work on this thing
myself for a bit just to try and finally get it done. If it gets punted
forward, we'll be right back to facing bit rot and remembering what was
going on again, which is what killed the momentum toward committing this
the last time.
