Josh addressed this point in the v2 cover letter by saying:

    Known NEEDSWORK:
    ...
    * Bikeshed on the name

But didn't Junio already say that the v2 of this series will be merged
as-is? [1]  That's what actually made me surprised and confused.

That only means that Junio placed the topic in his "seen" branch,
however, no promises about ultimate acceptance are attached to topics
in that branch. Quoting from Junio's "What's Cooking" emails (such as
[*]):

    Commits prefixed with '-' are only in 'seen', and aren't
    considered "accepted" at all and may be annotated with an URL to a
    message that raises issues but they are no means exhaustive.  A
    topic without enough support may be discarded after a long period
    of no activity (of course they can be resubmit when new interests
    arise).

Ah, good, thanks for the clarification.  It's all fine then, as far as
I'm concerned.
