FWIW, it would be nice, but given that this is not a regression, It would be hard justifying the release because of it. At least not by very much. What I propose is putting this item on the "Maybe" list, and try to get the patch in by mid June. If, by then, the patch or the desired behavior is still under discussion, then re-evaluate our situation. In particular, if the patch is really close, then wait. Otherwise, give the patch more time to mature, and cut the branch without it. Does it sound reasonable? -- Joel
