If our plan A doesn't work we can go back to these patches. For now
I'd rather have everyone spend their time on making Plan A work then
preparing for contingencies. Nothing prevents anyone from using these
patches already out there if they really want to, but I'd recommend
people are very careful about doing so as you'll lock yourself into
a long-term maintainance burden.
