The basic idea is reasonable, but it's a little late in the game to make 
any changes.  This is ready to ship and we're doing our best
to make no changes at all to RC3.

The web page and announcement can say 3.2.0 but I'm opposed to
changing anything in the release at this point.  We have some 
real bugfixes that we're delaying until 3.2.1, so why would we
make an exception for a non-essential changes such as this.
