In all fairness, taking action that could potentially allow malicious manipulation of filesystems probably isn't very POLA. ;) Really though, I don't see what all the fuss is about. Someone's said we'll have an RC3. I don't understand the huge rush to get new releases out the door (don't in my own company either). It'll be released when it's ready, that's why it's called a 'release'. If we need one more, or ten more RCs... I don't care. It means things are getting fixed while we're waiting.
