In general I very much applaud that, but late in the rc series, the
question then becomes "should it go into the final release at all?".

And if the answer is "yes", then earlier is better than just before the release.

Of course, potentially the answer is "better wait for next release and
maybe back-port", and then the question is one of "risk vs extra work
for the stable team".

IOW, right now I don't think "wait a few more days" is the answer either way.
