Sounds good. I think we are getting to the bottom of some of the
underlying issues which is good and longer term should help usability a
lot.

I was torn on that. I can drop from -next too.

Fair enough! I've run that patch through local only testing so far, as
you say, the AB has a lot going on.

I've been torn on waiting for these or building M1 but I'm aiming for
just the CDN fix since this may or may not take a while to settle on
the autobuilder and I don't think we need any more pressure. The
failures are driving Alexandre a bit crazy in swatbot so getting things
sorted is important.
