Wh doyou think this is a matter for argument when the Release Team has
been immanently clear?  They maintain: no cleanups in unblock requests,
not even for generally good [future-facing] things.  What you're
proposing may be introduced if/when they need to be introduced if we
track upstream's security-supported 1.4.x branch directly rather than
cherry picking commits as quilt patches.

I'm advocating for a compromise to include whatever I can from the
changes you made two days before the hard freeze.  Once again, the only
things we are allowed to change are release critical bugs (and
essential documentation) in 1.4.1-3.

I'm happy to hear the rest looks good :)

Cheers,
Nicholas
