If there is a candidate for doing the work I would be happy to delay
the release for this. In the absence of a volunteer (or sponsor dev)
to do this, I don't think we should discuss if we can reasonably delay
the release for this.

Right that is essentially the same as releasing with blockers since we
are just reclassifying items in the blocker queue to be non-blockers
:-) But seriously yes I agree many items in the queue should not be
classified as blockers IMHO.
