The last several branch releases I've seen branch regressions that should really
be blocking slip repeatedly... Are we at a point where branch regression fixes
are basically happening in people's free time? I know that's where I am, and
since I've had precious little of that some regressions have been in the branch
for 4 dot releases now. I've posted partial patches that needed more merging to
things like the pre-threadmanager event stuff on branch, but it doesn't seem
like branch drivers are able to get any actual resources devoted to branch
maintenance.

Is there anything we can do to make this better? I've been tempted to back out
some branch security fixes I made simply because that's all I have time for at
this point...
