Hi,

Thanks for your answers !

So the implication here is that if a patch potentially causes backward 
compatibility problems with existing modules, then it should be moved to the 
next major release, while issues that are clearly fixing bugs can remain in 
the current release.

Right, well I'll get back to that first patch then :)

Thanks,
Anselm
