We had this UI since v23, I think. I don't think anything bad will happen if we have it for another year or 2. And of course people who track the master branch will have it immediately.
People who track master are not the audience I was thinking of, though. But okay, let's target Emacs 28 to be the "new UI polish" release.
It would be nice to backport these patches to 27.2 if/when if comes out, though.
You do, but I'm asking to help me more. We should have released 27.1 a year ago.
I really hope that none of my late patches were ever the reason for the delay.
Come to think of it, I don't recall any of my proposals like that to cause a release-delaying regression later, in the last... many years.
And not just my proposals. We're pretty conservative about it. Which is a good thing, of course, but it indicates that we could be moving faster, even if just a bit (be it in allowing more last-minute fixes, or more feature backports, or doing shorter pretests, or starting pretests faster, or all of that together).
Anyway, such discussions should become rare if we somehow manage to speed up the release cycle someday.Such a someone will be very welcome, indeed.
Someone?Anyway, for all I know, we could release 27 tomorrow. As soon as we deal with the "modify literal objects" documentation discussion.
