It seems an important topic. Pull reverts (like: 
https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/commit/e5f7f41d253aacc601be64b5a1e4f24cd5ecfc32 
) aren't process failures, they should be normal parts of the 
dmd/Phobos development process. Even if 5-8% of the merges gets 
reverted, it's still OK. And now there is the cherry picking, so 
it's hard to pollute betas with bad patches.

Bye,
