From me, this isn't urgent at all, as I've said. But it is one source
of disrepute for us that I would have liked to see blocked
quicker/better. But we've agreed a way forwards with doc changes and
that is enough for now.

Personally, I think rules block MERGE, but it has already been agreed
that we would ignore rules for that case. But having said that, MERGE
is not being worked on currently, so its hardly a hot topic and
nothing I was thinking about when I brought up the topic.
