I can't rate whether this patch is very risky or not. If it's not risky at
all, I would agree to put it into v3-4-test as it changes many lines and
backporting might become difficult at some point. Volker, could you please
rate if it's risky or not?

Of course Tim is right, v3-4-test is already feature freezed, but in this
case an exception might make sense supposing the patch is very well tested
and the risk is very, very low.

What do you think?

Cheers,
Karolin
