Who said "huge" or "new"? Even bugfixes need testing. That's why
changesets should go
through master after all.

Exactly. That's what master is good for. Everything that hasn't been
tested in many environments is experimental by nature. You simply can't
commit anything to 2011.03 directly, for it would be experimental. It
has to be tested somewhere. That's master. (Yes, Koen, we know, OE-core
is an option, but not for some of us.)

Obviously not.
