As UI and feature freeze were 17 days ago and as we are also past
string freeze (your proposed changes also contain new strings) and as
we're talking about more than 2000 lines of code here, I will not give
my release-team approval. It feels too late for 3.26. 
I'm aware that the GSoC and Outreachy schedules only provide a short
integration time window and that this can be demotivating when you have
to wait six months longer until your changes are available to users. 
Having stability in mind, I would prefer if these changes received
broader testing and I'd also like to allow those "minor changes" you
mention to be incorporated (in early 3.27.x).
I'm looking forward to seeing this functionality included in 3.28.

Other r-t members are free to have different opinions of course. :)
