Hi Ryan, thank you for bringing your concern. Geode's release process dictates a time-based schedule <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/GEODE/Release+Schedule> to cut release branches. The release/1.10.0 <https://github.com/apache/geode/tree/release/1.10.0> branch was already cut over 3 week ago, but the “critical fixes” rule does allow critical fixes to be brought to the release branch by proposal on the dev list, as you have done here.
If there is consensus from the Geode community that your proposed change satisfies the “critical fixes” rule, I will be happy to bring it to the 1.10.0 release branch. Due to the complexity of this change, could please open a PR against release/1.10.0 containing the exact changes you want to bring?
