I think it makes good sense to release 4.2.3 as-is (after a short QA cycle, that will ensure we didn't introduce any new bugs). If 4.2.3 becomes a larger project, with more pre-requisites, I don't see it happening ("if it will not be simple, it will simply not be"). The last time around 4.2.3 died was exactly due to this issue.
