This has been backported, so it's not really new in that sense, I would say.
I don't necessarily mean to request removal from this list, but some indication
as to its availability in 4.15.1 may be helpful.

Then again I realize this also would apply to a few other items; this one is
just where the aspect first occurred to me.
