    I agree that it would be better to solve this automatically, but I
    sincerely doubt that we will get that right in time for the release
    (unless we delay the release for many months).

It is misguided to give up without a try just because a problem looks
hard.  If we try it, you may find it is not so hard.  So let's try it!
