Amber is the release manager and therefore has final say, but, generally, we try not to roll more things into releases.  Instead, we try to roll releases more frequently (which has been a resounding success during 2016, and hopefully we can keep that momentum during 2017).

However, I have to say I'm very sorry this did not get merged in a timely way!  It seems I didn't get the github notification when you @mentioned me; I have no idea why that would be.

I'll get test results on trunk and get it merged, and it should be in the next 17.x release.
