I am in favor of shipping rhino 1.7.14 in Bookworm for all the reasons Paul has
mentioned. I believe at this point in the release cycle we don't want to make
arbitrary changes but we also want to deliver the best possible software
package to our users. I'm not confident to find a different fix to address
#1026639 and the broken web application in openrefine. It clearly works with
1.7.14 but not with the current version in testing. Since I only had to patch
one reverse-dependency, the orphaned package closure-compiler, and everything
else appears to work as expected, I believe the risks are very manageable.
Worst case would be to rebuild another package. We also get the latest upstream
version and don't have to ship a six year old version again. 

Markus
