Well, a central component of time-based releases is that it's actually possible 
to plan your work to meet the deadline. 

My current rate is spending several days per change. We should stop and make 
our systems usable.

I would like to get https://codereview.qt-project.org/#change,49452 in to 
support HighDpi on Mac. I have several changes after that but they are all bug

But how can I make sure it goes in the next two days?
