Would you still like to wait until the 5.9 merge window?

Or would you prefer to see these changes land for 5.8 so as to limit the
variants of related code that needs to be supported?

If you and Damien are OK with 5.8 (and testing backs that up) then I
should be able to get it to land.

Let me know, thanks.
Mike
