Second the suggestion to reset Master to be a copy of the latest production 
release, so future development starts from that point.

Unless there's sufficient interest in doing a reconciliation pass...

It's much easier than that. I am proposing that whatever source is
released as 2.7.3 becomes the main branch. Any changes in what is
currently on master that are not in 2.7.3 are simply wiped out. In the
unlikely event anyone wants to move some of them forward, that's what
history is for. I'm proposing we accept the truth that we have a
single maintained branch that only accepts bug fixes, and optimize the
workflow for what we're already doing.
