Speaking of such, I think there may be a lurking problem with the 4.6.x (where x>0) to 4.7 upgrade.
IIRC, the mechanism for determining what updates need to be applied is a string >= comparison on the date of the update.
The last update for 4.6.0 was "2005-03-21" (I think). Since then, there have been a number of updates in the 4.6.x trunk and a different sequence of updates in the 4.7 trunk. I think this creates the risk that some of the 4.7 upgrades (i.e. those with dates <= the 4.6.x upgrades) will get skipped.
Has anyone verified that the 4.6.x -> 4.7 upgrade does in fact get all of the 4.7 schema updates? I can't; I just don't have time to spend on Drupal until well after the 4.7 release.
I noticed this and provided a workaround in my giant update patch [1]. 1. http://drupal.org/node/35924 -Neil
