I certainly didn't mean for the idea to be advocating git nor any
changes in 8.4.

I was hoping the main idea was that the part you didn't quote:

would be very useful regardless of the source control system it's based on.

And if enough people found such a 'staging branch' useful, it'd be
worth maintaining even if I had to do it with 'patch' and no SCM tools
whatsoever -- simply so not everyone has to merge it.
