At the moment, with the online-index and updatable-views patches both pretty seriously broken, and no sign that the bitmap-index people are awake at all, I might take it on myself to fix this one instead of those others. But is that what I should be spending my time on in the waning days of the 8.2 freeze cycle? Speak now or hold your peace.
Personally, I would say that this is less important than updatable views but more than online indexes. If it could be fixed just for the view case in a day or so then I think it's worth it.
