First of all let me apologize for this situation. There is no excuse
that I sent new features in requests after rc.
I've changed my workflow and I will send new pull request with the
strict regression fixes only. There will be only two patches which I
would like to add to your tree.
Thanks and sorry for hassle,
Michal
