To clarify, I don't think that either. But sitting in pu, nobody is even
running it. This seems to me like the sort of topic where there will be
a lot of unintended fallouts. Besides review, the best way to find
them is to get people running it, and 'next' is the most bleeding-edge
we have.

Yeah, that sounds reasonable, especially if merging this to 'next' would
make git unusable. We want to shake out bugs, not punish people running
next. :) But I haven't even really looked at the topic in detail yet.

Not at all. This is exactly the sort of in-depth review that is very
helpful. Thanks.
