Just a suggestion...

In general, I'd guess that most people are unable to do such things.  I
don't know about anyone else, but I stick to stable releases for my systems.

In general, getting things like this tested would probably go a lot
better if you did backports to releases that most people are probably using.

Maybe there are enough people this bug is affecting that you might hit
one or two "previewing" 12.10.  I dunno.  I just know that I don't have
any 12.10 systems here.
