Okay, should I do it today or is core-updates frozen?

I don't know if there is a great solution; I think this is a really
perverse case.

I think of core-updates as the place to put these sorts of changes. If
we were to decide to delay the changes, we'd all have our own private
core-updates forks, and then we'd probably duplicate work and forget
about things. What do you think?

If anybody else feels burdened by this as I do, your ideas are very
welcome :)
