While it missed the semi-official feature freeze, this was IMO just an oversight (didn't think of it myself): it is not that any mad rushes of last-minute fixes were what was causing this. I don't think it should cause any trouble, and I was short before reporting a few problems with message-mode. But it would be a waste of time bothering about fixing them in 5.9 AFAICS. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum
