well, I guess the issue here is that UX has proven to be much more of a bottleneck than QA in the past. See that quoted issue in one of the first mails of this thread forest, where UX did not respond for ~.5 years. And while I think that UI cohesiveness/usability is important, I would compromise it (temporarily), to have otherwise useful and properly QAed features integrated - in the case an UX feedback request has timed out. And besides that, with documents like http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/OpenOffice.org_Guidelines and http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/UI_Style_Guides devs and QA should be able to design/verify "good-enough" UI in the first place - I would be very surprised if any UI atrocities would survive a proper QA cycle then. Given all this, I also second the timeout proposal.
