My comment was on the define feature in <macrodef>
it has been in the build for a while (~a year). It was placed
there as an experiment, but I do not think that people have
used it (as there is no comments, and it does not fullfill
its usecase - it leaves removable properties). If it is left in now,
it will be there forever! (due to BC).

Looks like a very good reason to not make the final build until it is 
removed, I would call this essential.

 final build, would I be the only one (I already have my doubts on doing
 non-essential things between the RCs).
