I agree about this. I was about to bring it up a couple of times myself but
I didn't want to kill the discussion. Fortunately that's a problem with the
process and it can be more easily addressed than the general consensus
issue.The next time we have a feature discussion we should make sure it's
clear that once a decision to include a feature has  been made, it has been
made... This is probably release manager responsibility, bad me :)
