Totally in support of STATUS for backports; this code differs enough that it's no longer a backport. The toolkit wrappers alone were significantlyre-factored between these branches.
There are other proposals that are not backports. STATUS is about review, regardless of whether a proposal is a simple backport or bears little or no relationship with /trunk/. I'm not objecting to the patch, I'm objecting to bypassing the *process* that flags it up for my attention! Now it's in STATUS, if it reaches +3 and gets backported, that''s just fine, whether or not I've reviewed it myself by then. -- Nick Kew
