Sorry, I don't understand when a change is supposed to require an RFC or =
not, and when it can come after feature freeze or not. Is it written =
somewhere ? What is the definition of a 'minimal self-contained' change =
? Why is it different if it belongs to an extension ?

I may be wrong but the proposed change is not what I call a 'minimal =
self-contained' change and there's a clear BC break. I'd love it to be =
part of 7.0 but I would first appreciate to be sure the rules are the =
same for everyone.
