I wouldn=E2=80=99t say one week is =E2=80=9Cin extremis=E2=80=9D - =
it=E2=80=99s reasonable for small, self-contained, BC break-less new =
features. Although at least 10 days is usually better.

That being said, I agree. This kind of thing shouldn=E2=80=99t be taken =
lightly, and this RFC should have a longer voting period.

attests to that.
