Why isn't this in 4.4-stable? I can't take it into 3.14-stable unless I
also have it in 4.4, otherwise it would be a regression when people
upgraded, right?
And if this isn't in 4.4-stable, why not? I'm guessing that the authors
didn't think it was necessary...

Or maybe someone missed the above text?
Anyway, I'm not going to do anything with this until I learn more...
