Personally, I have paid no attention to this thread and have no intention
of doing so before feature freeze.  There are three dozen patches at
https://commitfest.postgresql.org/action/commitfest_view?id=21
that have moral priority for consideration for 9.4.  Not all of them are
going to get in, certainly, and I'm already feeling a lot of guilt about
the small amount of time I've been able to devote to reviewing/committing
patches this cycle.  Spending time now on patches that didn't even exist
at the submission deadline feels quite unfair to me.

Perhaps I shouldn't lay my own guilt trip on other committers --- but
I think it would be a bad precedent to not deal with the existing patch
queue first.
