We have announced that we plan to release 2.8.0 at the end of 
this month. There is little if any precedent for a "preview" 
release, so we either need to decide if:

1) we need another delay get this into 2.8.0
2) we can wait until 2.8.1 to include this fix (and others)

If we commit to making this short-term problem (as in releasing 
2.8.1 quickly), the question is no longer technical, I think we 
can avoid a serious PR problem for this group as we have already 
agreed to a month-long delay.
