I think I would prefer to merge them onto branch-0.23 and have them come out as part of 0.23.5. It will probably show up in a month or so, as we expect to find more issues as Yahoo! deploys this to more and larger clusters. If you really feel strongly about it I am OK with merging it in, I just don't see a critical need for it right now.
