I hope that with all things considered (the little time we have left, the little concrete discussion that happened so far as a result, the inconsistency of allowing such a vote to push out feature freeze, the scope of this feature being a lot more suitable for a major release, and our inability to fix/improve other related elements at the same time) - Nikita will propose this for 8.0 instead of 7.x.
