I don't understand why we're always doing the list of major features
at the absolute last possible moment. I really think that should have
been done a month ago, if not several months, so that we could have
appropriate time for bike-shedding before it goes into the tree and
for messaging after it goes into the tree. Now we're sitting here with
a placeholder in the documentation when we're supposed to wrap in 5
days, and 2 of those are weekend days.
