Correct.

Recent "What's cooking" lists the topic as "Will merge to 'master'"
but this does not promise in which timeframe it will be merged to
'master', so it may not even be in 2.9.0 at all.

Generally, what is in 'next' is marked as "Will merge to 'master'"
by default, until a reason not to do so is found, at which time the
mark is changed to "Will hold", etc., so saying "master branch soon"
upon seeing "Will merge to 'master'" is a bit of overstatement.

In fact, "git log maint..pb/commit-verbse-config" shows that this
new feature is not ineligible for the maintenance track.  It will
never be in 2.8.3 or any 2.8.x series.
