This didn't work optimally because it's a mixture of the old 
approach to incrementally merging unfinished features (now spread 
over stable/2.072 and master/2.073) and transitioning the major 
part of the scope work to a feature branch.
We now have to live with some safety related changes already 
being released, but there really isn't much confusing about the 
branches, other than you using -transition=safe and Dicebot 
changing everything to deprecations.
So let's just resolve that argument and fix whatever branch 
differs from the outcome.
