Agreed on both counts.  We're close enough now to Monday's wrap that we
should avoid anything that risks destabilizing 9.3.x, unless it's to fix
a serious bug.  AIUI this is just a performance issue, so let's wait till
after 9.3.2 is done to push in the fix.  But since it is a performance
regression from pre-9.3, never back-patching the fix at all isn't very
attractive.
