Hello, Thomas.

If you look at the review branches, they're actually structured that
way so that the timer part can be pulled separately. If the
maintainer wants to do that, sure. If the maintainer thinks routing
through another tree is fine, that's okay too. Subsystem boundaries
are all good and great but it's not some absolute barrier which can't
be crossed at any cost.

Thomas, I wasn't trying to get it through behind your back. You have
been notified clearly multiple times and have ample opportunities to
object and suggest different ways if you don't like whatever is going
on.

I probably should have written "if the maintainer doesn't object, I
think it would be easier to route these through wq/for-3.7 as it will
be the only user for now, blah blah blah" instead and maybe I
misjudged the character of the changes or the subsystem. That said, I
think you're inferring too much.

Thanks.
