The freezing strategy is releng's job. So releng would have to wait
until test1 to know whether there will be a mass-rebuild to really
discuss freezing? Also when scheduling F8 one needs to be aware
whether there will be any mass-rebuilds to make sure the freezing test
release has enough time before GA.

So deciding when test1 will be may be depending on the decision you
want to make at test1 time, sounds a bit like catch22.
