Well, not having too much pressure is exactly the reason why I'd like us to
revert. We would then have time to iterate with the people having reported
the issue without having a last release out there that does not work as
expected.

We apparently have at least one person willing to test the WIP PR so that's
a good thing for that.

Reverting and releasing does not mean not pursuing the issues and making
progress on this. That only means we can do it without pressure.
