Are you sure we should couple so much the feature exception to the
patch? I would have expected that an exception would be granted just
in base of the need for it and how much sense it makes to have that
feature in that release. Later, there would be a code review that
should take in account the time we have left for stabilizing and how
invasive is the patch.

Other projects do code review and exception granting at the same moment?
