I don't think you would get too many comments if you commit to a branch either.
What I would do in your case is:
(a) Tag the relevant files as they are today (i.e., PRE_RAND_REDESIGN or
whatever)
(b) Commit your move-around changes
(c) Commit the real changes (can be done immediately after (b), as long as
it's separate)
(d) Cross your fingers :)
If we like it, the tree will be fixed quite quickly. If we don't, we can
revert easily.
I usually don't encourage people to commit changes that break the tree, but
as we're not anywhere near a new release (that is, 4.0.7 already branched)
having the tree broken for a few hours or even a couple of days under the
'less-mainstream' configurations is not a complete disaster...
