Re: What in practice I want to happen ...

Just wanted to point out that the feature freeze is in 15 days, but the
real UI freeze is in 1 month and 15 days. Improvement/simplification of
the mime type handling (for example) can probably be done until the end
of november, and maybe the removal of some features to clean up ui might
be allowed, that's probably worth asking the release team about that.
