I think we're all agreed on that point.
What we can do is delay the release if we have a serious enough bug that
is not fixed yet.
I think what people are saying on this bug is that this issue is serious
enough it should be considered as a release blocker---something that
could actually delay the release.
From where I sit, thinking about what I've deployed in the last five
years, I agree with that analysis: this *might* be serious enough to
delay the release until there is a fix.
Given that we can't stick on 6.0, I think we should try to get this
into testing as soon as possible so we can see how big of an impact it
is in practice.
I don't like to see testing broken, but I like to see stable broken in
serious ways even less.
And so I'd recommend we see how badly this is going to hurt us.
