The question is whether we are willing to back-patch a fairly large amount of not-very-well-tested code into 8.0.

I personally don't think it's worth the risk. The code works well enough to commit to development tip, but it's fundamentally alpha quality code.
I think this makes the most sense. If we are going to do an extended testing period for 8.0.without-arc then bundling it in there might worth considering.
