I would like to see one more RC released.
And I think a _total_ freeze after this RC would make a lot of sense, since we keep changing the code in every RC..

[x] Indefinitely delay 5.2 release until filter issue can be resolved.
[ ] Remove filter from PHP 5.2 and hope that some near-future release  
will re-introduce it
[ ] Go with what we have right now, and if filter developers want to  
make changes they'll need to do so in a manner backwards compatible  
to the current code.
