Hi John,

This is the first step to prepare the release-critical issue
for the next release.  There were no code changes, only renames.

However, there are code changes planned in bug#22147
to make this feature (albeit disabled) usable in the next release,
so the users will have an incentive to try to customize it
and report back possible changes in the default values that might
be useful in the later versions.

Is this the right thing to do?  Or do you think it would be safer
not to touch even disabled feature before the release?  Then please
specify what have to be done before the release and/or maybe also
remove it from the release-critical list?  (There were one incompatibility
regarding lax-whitespace reported in bug#22147 but fortunately
there are hacks to circumvent it in ~/.emacs).
