I'm sure anything that could be done to eliminate this formatting
make-work would be just fine with Thomas ;-). However, it probably
wouldn't really change the release scheduling much, since as he points
out it's partially an excuse for clamping down:

In short, now is our "okay people, let's get *serious*" phase.
No features, no trivial stuff, just get the critical bugs out.

I'm pretty concerned about WAL, but have no good reason not to start
the release countdown.
