These have always been "eventually in some future", not "next week". A topic with potentially high impact tends to cook in 'next' longer than a trivial typo fix, so that it has better chance of getting stopped by the community dogfooding of 'next' before getting merged to 'master' and bite the general public. And the commit-graph thing certainly is a bigger beast I'd feel safer if people tested heavily while it is in 'next' before it hits 'master'.
