If the change is made, I'd prefer it on core-updates. Merging master
into core-updates and vice versa already requires somebody to resolve a
lot of merge conflicts. I'd rather not add to that burden.
I don't follow the reasoning. Makeing such a change on core-updates instead of
master would only make the merge effort worse.
