RFC:

we have had some proposed intrusive patches land in the metadata with
only a few people aware of the fact they landed at all (or why).

Proposal is to post a "[HEADS UP] Description of changed behaviour"
email on the -devel mailing list when you pushed an intrusive patch.

Do this in a new thread (not replying to an old thread).


The current situation is that the intrusive push go-ahead is often at
the tail of a thread, and not every dev can track all RFC's.

It helps people jump in on the change early.
