This patch is so hard for me. 

The safety it adds is critical and should have been added a decade ago.
Also it’s a huge patch, and touches “everything”. 

It definitely belongs in 5.0. I’d probably reject by default in 5.0.1.  

4.0 / 4.1 - if we treat this like a fix for latent opportunity for data loss 
(which it implicitly is), I guess?
