changes, as part of the release of BetaFeatures extension. We'd only be providing something to users who want to try this font stack. It's a choice they get to make, and in that sense I think it's a little wrong for us to dictate anything based solely on ideology.
If you need to install an extension to enable the typography, then why is it even in core in the first place?
Also, I really hope there was no malicious intention behind this change. Because the originally uploaded patch set (i.e., PS1, or the patch that people initially get an email about) was completely different from the patch that was merged. Changing the subject of patches so suddenly and drastically is quick and dirty move to hide changes from people who subscribe to the new patchset feed. Please don't do that again in the future.
