Hey Cheng, Looking at the PR, this looks more like a feature that happened to go in after the 1.2.0 release as opposed to a fix related to that release.
For patch releases, we try to focus on fixes to the minor release. Per semver <https://semver.org/>, patch releases are for "when you make backwards compatible bug fixes" and I think we want to hold to that as much as is reasonable. Let me know if I misunderstood the purpose of the PR. Otherwise, it should be included in the 1.3.0 release.
