When it fixes all kinds of bugs that ought to be considered
showstoppers?  Also, from your explanation it didn't sound like you
were proposing to add any features, merely to remove a "Feature" (i.e.
BUG).  Having read lots of bug reports about the first three example
bugs you list (I guess the other two were before my time?  Don't know
why I didn't know about them), two of which basically make Gnome
unusable, and additionally having been affected by all of those three
on various occasions, even if this did break feature freeze I think
you'd likely get the necessary approvals.

Also, Havoc's comments about removing it seem instructive here (he
thought it had already happened and that it should if it hadn't--and
that was two years ago):
