I mean, if we were willing to put it out as-is rather than delay the release 
long enough to deal with it, why not just do the next release like we normally 
would and let it get fixed along with everything else rather than delay 
everything while we fix it and then go through the whole release process again? 
If the import stuff wasn't important enough to delay the release any further, I 
don't see why it's important enough for us to rush another release just for 
it.
