Since when we entered -rc8 (or even earlier).

That's because I am not objecting to the code. I am objecting to the
fact that you're submitting something as big as this so late in the
release cycle and the fact that it's not a clear-cut bug fix.

But anyway, I don't really want to argue about this. I simply wanted
to point out that I agree with Alan's and James' comments and that I
don't think they have anything to do with "slowing down IDE fixes" but
rather with how the whole release cycle with fixed merge window works.
