The advantage of the second two options is that our users would get
fixes for various bugs much -- years -- sooner than they otherwise
would. That's a service that it would be nice to provide, if we could.
The costs would be:
- for everyone: having to wait for one of the head maintainers to okay
installing something on emacs-31 instead of just going ahead and
installing it on master
I'm not one of the head maintainers, so I have no comment on the costs
borne by all of you. However, from my perspective as Eshell maintainer,
I've always appreciated the extra eyes from head maintainers when I'd
like to merge something into the release branch. It really doesn't feel
like much of a cost to me.
