I don't have a strong opinion about whether this is worth getting into
the back branches. I do have a strong opinion that just before a
release freeze is not the time to be pushing such changes into stable
branches. Even after the release, I wouldn't touch v13: we have
learned repeatedly that inessential changes made in a branch's final
release are often sources of regret.
