I don't know if there is a great solution; I think this is a really perverse case. I think of core-updates as the place to put these sorts of changes. If we were to decide to delay the changes, we'd all have our own private core-updates forks, and then we'd probably duplicate work and forget about things. What do you think? If anybody else feels burdened by this as I do, your ideas are very welcome :)
