Frankly, for quite some time I'm confused by the RFC's and RFA's
posted here.  Are they all meant to go to the branch as well as the
trunk?  If so, is it wise to make such changes after cutting the
release branch?

Perhaps in the future each patch could tell explicitly whether it is
meant ffor the branch or not, to prevent confusion.
