We understand being conservative but the code paths only impact on a product that is not yet in market. This is version 10 spanning months with many gaps waiting on review. It's an interesting case study.

No, it's too late to queue up for 6.2, even when it was posted on
Friday. Bigger changes like that should be in my tree at least a week
before the merge window opens, preferably two (or somewhere in between).

I already tagged the main 6.2 block changes on Friday, and the pull
request has been sent out.
