FWIW, the way I'll often handle that kind of change is to temporarily
set it to "release-blocker" (so the RM will at least look at it before
deciding whether or not to proceed with the release), and then drop it
down to "deferred blocker" if I decide it's not going to be ready, but
want to commit to getting it fixed before the *next* release.

Cheers,
Nick.
