[development] (non-critical) getting a new polls.module feature in before 4.7.0?

[Derek Wright]

i know we're in a crunch for 4.7.0.  i've been trying to help find,
test, and fix what bugs i can, and i want to be in solidarity with the
request by dries.  that said, once the 4.7.0 rc goes out, there won't
be any more new features added to any of 4.7.x, right?  if so, any
chance of sneaking in a small new feature for polls i wrote a patch
for a few weeks ago?

patch needs review.  any comments on that node most welcome.  

thanks,
