I think this is too large a change at this point in the release
cycle. We're well past the merge window, and today is supposed to be the
last 'non-critical bug' merge day. As this is in the input code, it's
mostly your call, but it seems a bit outside our published process.

From the description above, it doesn't sound like this really offers any
significant new functionality without additional work which won't land
until 1.12. If other people have opinions as to whether we should merge
this in for 1.11, please let us hear them.
