In general, in areas like contrib/ where there is a volunteer area
maintainer, unless the change something ultra-urgent (e.g. serious
security fix) and the area maintainer is unavailable, I'm really
reluctant to bypass and take a single patch that adds many things
that are independent from each other.

Especially not immediately before tagging 1.8.0 final.
