I don't see the relaxing of this as any reason to hold up the release.  In 
fact, one could argue this is a new feature just as easily and should be 
targeted at 1.8.  A search found http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/2801 and 
http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/changeset/18657 which was in trunk, with no effort 
to target or backport this to 1.7 at this time.

A few seconds reading 'svn log' or 'svn blame' output and looking at 
http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/log/trunk/gdal/frmts/jp2kak/jp2kakdataset.cpp can 
show you what you are looking for.  

It is important to bring up your pet issue(s) *before* the release candidate is 
made, and not demand that we stop everything and turn the boat around 
afterward.  If you have something that is important to you, you should follow 
it, ticket it, and watch the code you care about during the period between 
releases.  Alternatively, filing tickets with patches and test cases attached 
will ensure quick resolution of your issue.
