It didn't slip through the cracks, it was apparently just delayed. It's 
part of the merge requests I've gotten today (well, strictly speaking it 
seems to have hit my inbox just before midnight yesterday, but that's 
because those silly aussies stand upside down and sleep at odd hours).

In fact, I just merged it, I haven't even had time to push that out.
