Correct. To be completely honest it shouldn't have ever been
merged since there was no approval from WalTila and they steer
the language.
I raised a similar concern before with something else (don't
remember what it was), but apparently things can be merged
without W&A's approval if they're behind a switch (in the
opinion of at least some of the core maintainers, at least).
Yeah, iirc preview switches can be added without a DIP because
it's not a part of the language per se. It's probably a
reasonable approach, because otherwise you would get a multitude
of forks instead.
