I see this on 2.4 schedule:
"2015-06-16 Soft feature freeze. All features
should have patches on the list by this date; major features should have
initial code committed."
It is a 9-line patch (from which 6 are declarations, and 2 are actual
code statements), it doesn't affect anybody who is not explicitly using
"-cpu custom", it is an useful feature, and it has been on the list
since June 8 (and as RFC since April 13).
Unless somebody gives me a good reason to consider it harmful (that's
different from not accepting the explanations why it is useful, or
disagreeing with users that want to use it), I would like to include it
in 2.4 as long as I get Reviewed-by lines before hard freeze.
