We can unset it as easily as someone can set it. And I don't think we
should consider this possibility, since it's very unlikely to happen.
The current marks are not done by someone as malicious as that.

Fixing bugs might not be a 1-sec job, to say nothing of the need to
test the fixed version in yet another pretest. So I wouldn't
recommend delaying that till just before the release.

That's exactly my point: we should decide _today_ which one are truly
blocking, and then make all the necessary effort, starting with
tomorrow, to fix those which are.
