That's true, sorry -- maybe I should be more judicious about which
issues I say that about. For example, a small, discrete issue like
#1209 (about path escaping) is one where it's easy to review a patch
before 1.0 and just fix it.

But an issue that requires discussion and (likely) a complex fix is a
different matter. In that case, the effort required is part of the
reason we put it in Post-1.0 in the first place. #901 is one of
those.

No, it means we exercise judgement on a case-by-case basis, like the
large-brained hominids we are :-).

Ah, thanks for clarifying.
