Then you'll have no issues patching other things in 0.21 that are actual bug fixes that also meet this criteria, right? Or does this only apply to
things that Yahoo! is hitting/deemed worthy?


Allen raises a good point that the rest of the community may not need some of the features that Yahoo
finds useful internally. It may clutter Hadoop unnecessarily.
Most of these admin GUI improvements are pluggable.
Perhaps this particular plugin did not even need to go into trunk. It could have been made available as a separate downloadable or contrib module. This way folks can use it across releases and only if they need it.

Further, there are a few new GUI improvements in the hadoop community that are proprietary - we should make it easier to create new admin plugins easily. This way users can create new plugins that are useful to them internally; it also allows companies to create proprietary plugins for their customers.
