Comment(by nickm):

 {{{
 14:07 < athena> nickm: #7912 looks solid enough for 0.2.4 to me if you're
 okay
                 with it
 14:08 < nickm> I'm feeling wary TBH.
 14:08 < nickm> This feels like one of those things where we merge it, and
                something isn't quite right, and we tinker and tinker and
 delay
                the release.
 14:08 < nickm> I mean, I'm not sure that will happen. But I'd give it a
 20-30%
                chance.
 14:08 < nickm> So if you're okay trying it in 0.2.5 with a possibility for
 an
                0.2.4 backport, I think that's how i'd lean.
 14:08 < athena> okay
 }}}

 I have done a rebase -i --autosquash in branch "bug7912_squashed", and
 added a changes file.
