Comment (by arma):

 Replying to [comment:8 nickm]:
 > marking for possible backport.  Note that I'm not so sure about a
 backport here: any behavioral changes that this patch causes will be
 subtle indeed, and perhaps best not backported unless we are certain they
 are beneficial.

 "We don't know of any actual behavior this will fix" plus "we're not sure
 if the patch introduces surprises" sound together like a great rationale
 for not backporting. Or for leaving the ticket in limbo (open but not
 backported) until it becomes clearer that we should backport it or close
 it.
