Based on what I see in 'next' (midx, range-diff, etc), I quite like this idea. In private I may still have ideas for new features and hack away at them but I would avoid sending new feature topics and would focus on helping polish what's already been sent out. Let's make 2.19 easy for people to adopt. For whatever that's worth. I'm only one person; others may have their own wishes. Thanks, Jonathan
