Comment (by nacin):

 1) It's a significant patch with quite a bit of changes, and a lot of
 potential to break things.

 2) There were more pressing changes in XML-RPC, image handling, and the
 upload APIs for 3.5. Most of that, you participated in.

 3) It has no unit tests.

 4) It is not a regression, and can easily be traced back to 3.0 — when MU
 was merged and wp_check_filetype_and_ext() was introduced.

 Overall, we're looking at a low priority fix for a low priority ticket.
 It'll get addressed in a future release. It would be good if more people
 reviewed it — but the fact that no one did is more indicative of it being
 a low priority than something that got lost.
