Is anybody against marking it for stable?It would be strange to have different behavior with known regression in 4.6 and 4.7 stables. Actually, there's still time for 4.7 proper?I added the cc:stable. Do we need to bust a gut to rush it into 4.7? It sounds safer to let it bake for a while, fix it in 4.7.1?
Yeah, I guess it's safer to wait now. Would be different if the reverted commit went in the same cycle.
