I agree with Sebastian that we should do it (because the early 
explanation is misleading). I agree with Lou that it should be 
where it is currently proposed. (And once there, I think it is 
less problematic to move, split, or re-organise it in a 
subsequent review... but yes, of course, nice to get it right 
first time.)
Also, I should point out that the freeze of last night is 
intended for *schema-affecting* changes. Changing of prose, 
correcting typos, etc. are allowed (if important) up until Hugh 
announces a release freeze as part of the steps of making a 
release tomorrow.
