That course of action makes sense to me, too. While we ideally want to catch design bugs during beta, the fact is that we sometime won't notice them until the release candidate phase, and it makes sense to fix them before the final release. However, it also makes sense to discuss the corner cases here before deciding how to proceed, and if we uncover any more after rc2, such a change would probably be a trigger for a 3rd release candidate (although that would ultimately be Larry's call as release manager).
