Updates of Eclipse version are specifically affecting no-one, and I fear 
it's not about to get much feedback. It's a low-risk change and the 
later we apply it, the later we'll know whether everything works fine 
with newer TP.
A too long feedback loop (several days) is not very possible in the RC 
stream with a new release of Eclipse release train every week.

It won't affect builds.
The mirror-target-to-repo mojo is actually a "slicer", so the output 
site for target-platform does not depend on planner/slicer, it's always 
the same output as slicer. So moving TP from planner to slicer in 
multiple makes it easier/faster to detect mistakes that used to occur 
only while validation unified target. Those issues are now detected 
while validating multiple (about 1 hour earlier).
