Yeah, sure, absolutely fine. This list however looks slightly  
different than your original comment about dropping "merge5" in two  
weeks. "merge5" to me is about the feature, not about the specific  
patch itself. As long as we keep the patch, we should keep the issue  
open. Once we have a clean alternative, we close it.

Thanks for your feedback.
