There's a lot of talk about what should and should not be added for in 2.7.6.
What's in:
functions or features that you've tested and used yourself or a lot by others and you know it's 100% reliable.
What's out:
functions or features that you have not tested, or only just wrote "yesterday" and really have no good history of testing.
Also, if the function has been added to 3.0, in order to add it to 2.7, it must have identical specs and behavior to 3.0. At this stage, we don't want to create new incompatibilities with 3.0.
