By definition of 'maint', 1.5.4.X are to fix bugs in the
features that are in 1.5.4, so the answer is no.

I expected this answer.

And it won't change.

But we could end up having a short cycle for 1.5.5 if we agree
that the lack of crlf=safe is a severe bug that is worth fixing
post 1.5.4.

So I should try harder to find better arguments.  But this has
time until the 1.5.4 release is out.  For now, I am being quiet.

Instead, you could be louder and convince people that it is a
severe bug worth fixing before 1.5.4, like Linus did with the
issue with performance regression on a partial commit.  It's
entirely your choice.

(Well, I'll continue to improve the safecrlf patch and most
likely will send it to the list, too...)

Please do.  "I am currently not convinced" does not mean "I am
always right" nor "I won't reconsider".
