I fear it might be too tight, but I will let Andrew and Tom comment
on that.

Are the issues critical enough and the associated fix sufficiently
safe that we might consider delaying the release for this?

  - Source highlight non utf-8 characters using Python:
    Not sure.

  - Improvements to Python parameter
    I don't think this is new, and I am not sure it's worth delaying
    the release for this.
