Comment(by nickm):

 I'm not "eager" to go that route.  But as I see it the alternatives are:

    * Add this to 0.2.3.x without the bwauth changes, even though it will
 break things.
    * Delay 0.2.3.x until bwauth changes are completed on an unknown
 timeframe.
    * Add this tricky new feature into 0.2.3.x while 0.2.3 is stable.
    * Do not add this to 0.2.3.x; put it in 0.2.4.x.

 I think that the first two options are not okay.  That leaves us with the
 last two options, which are not great.

 We'll see when this can go in.  I will not block 0.2.3.x for it, and I
 will not promise that it will merge into 0.2.3.x if it isn't ready until
 0.2.3.x has been stable for some time.
