So that isn't actually the main reason I hadn't pulled, although being
emailed a few days before the merge window opened did mean that it was
fairly low down in my mailbox anyway..

No, the real reason is that for new features like this - features that
I don't really see myself using personally and that I'm not all that
personally excited about - I *really* want others to pipe up with
"yes, we're using this, and yes, we want this to be merged".

It doesn't seem to be huge, which is great, but the deathly silence of
nobody speaking up and saying "yes please", makes me go "ok, I won't
pull if nobody speaks up for the feature".
