Yes, that's reasonable.

And, the same argument could apply to
<https://bugzilla.tianocore.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1293>.

As I just wrote in another email, we might want to generally switch to a
feature-oriented release schedule, from a purely time-based one. It
solves some issues, and raises some others (such as: feature creep,
indefinite slips, and debates about what features are critical). I'm
open to such a workflow change.

Thanks!
Laszlo
