I agree - from my perspective I wouldn't have thought it so critical as to
push it out this late in the development cycle. It's not a regression as
such and is largely cosmetic. Others may argue differently though.

BTW, it looks like you may have missed my Reviewed-by tag on this patch,
sent on 25 Oct. There was also a Tested-by added by Heinrich Siebmanns on
the same day:

Reviewed-by: Jonathan Woithe <jwoithe@xxxxxxxxxx>
Tested-by: Heinrich Siebmanns <harv@xxxxxx>

Or perhaps such peripheral tags aren't carried forward on patches like this,
in which case it's a moot point.
