I'd say there's a very good chance - the "soft freeze" approach was
agreed upon to allow flexibility to include incoming features, if
prior approval is given (vs free-for-all-commit-what-you-want).

Also, I don't think API breaks like these are (should be?) included in
the freeze at all. It's only features. My 2c is that api is frozen at
day of release, no sooner... (trusting everyone not to do some major
refactoring at the last minute!!)
