I dunno, I agree that there will likely be more regressions, but I
also think people might be happier with more changes in release 'X' than
some changes in X and then some more in Y, both of which end up
destablizing their environment, particularly if we advertise that 'X'
has lots of changes and that people should test it thoroughly..

My feeling is that this would be good to include in 9.2, but I could be
swayed either way- I certainly agree with the sentiment that it's
getting to a pretty late date.

Thanks,

Stephen
