Andrew, Heiner, how do you feel about this driver?

Daniel, is it high prio for you to get it into 6.4 or 6.5 is okay?

I'm trying to get a read on whether we should merge it because it's
kind of on the goal line for this merge window.

If nobody feels strongly we can do this the traditional way - I'll
just complain about RCT, hence kicking it back out into the field :)
