Well, obviously no insult is intended here... :-)
My point is that one can't say for sure that a change touches only
bindings and affects nothing else, without inspecting it. That's why
bindings changes need to go through the same inspection process as
other 1.0 changes. (For example, some bindings changes tweak the
build system -- if there's a mistake, they could affect aspects of the
build that have nothing to do with bindings.)
Shipping with the latest bindings is fine, just not by skimping on
review.
