-1. This and that are orthogonal and effort in one does not need to
block the other. If someone is willing to put in the effort, let them.
Last time I checked we, as a project, are not blocking bugfixes for

I agree that we should improve our upgrade process (and we had a great
discussion on the topic at the PGCon Unconference last week), but in
my view that's not relevant to this discussion.
