Yes, the status quo of Idle is not something we should allow to continue indefinitely, but decisions about its future development should be made by active maintainers that are already trusted to make changes to it (such as Terry and Roger), rather than those of us that don't use it, and aren't interested in maintaining it. Definitely. People shouldn't remain quiescently torpid about the idle status quo.

The release managers should have a say in the matter, since it does cause some amount of pain there.
