Incase you missed the cover letter: I would say that while this can be merged to 'next', we should delay the merge to 'master' for after the 2.50 release since it can be disruptive. Mostly letting it bake for a longer time before hitting a major release.

That said, I think it should be good to go to 'next', since all reviews were addressed!

Thanks Karthik
