It also includes some tests, and is an extension of the existing functionality, so should be a decently safe bet.

On this change, the last behavioral change (some renaming of generated code) was on May 21st, and the last major code change was May 8th, so it would’ve made it into the Feature Freeze if not for waiting for the qtdeclarative change :)

I don't understand how it's possible to ask for a freeze-exception for
changes that haven't even been +2ed yet.
