IMHO we have already waited too long to freeze 1.12 content and while those code refactoring are nice to have, they do not seem mandatory for the new stable branch.
We should only apply bugfixes from now and publish a new RC followed shortly by the final 1.12.0 release. If there are blocker bugs, we should identify them ASAP.

Just my 2 cents,
Pascal.
