Dan,

The commit wasn't CC'd to stable so it wouldn't have been automatically
picked up by us. Thanks for bringing it to our attention we'll look into
it.

Our update cadence runs every 3 weeks and we just started a new one. That
means that if we pick this up in the next 3 weeks it will come out approx.
6 weeks from now.

Brad
