[RMT hat]

Unfortunately, since this feature still requires substantial changes and
there are remaining questions on its design, the RMT has decided to request
a revert for v19.  Alexander, can you please do so within the next week?  I
acknowledge that this is a frustrating outcome for those who worked hard on
it, but I hope the post-feature-freeze discussion has illuminated what
needs to happen for successful inclusion in v20.
