Comment (by manfcarlo):

 I noticed that the bug scrubs are beginning for 6.1, so I thought it would
 help to give a summary of the current status.

 * The ticket was originally opened for 5.9 and has already been postponed
 twice to 6.0 and 6.1. It would be disappointing for it to be postponed
 again, since full-site editing is considered a major focus at the moment.

 * The last time the ticket was postponed, it was done so on the basis that
 the patch had test failures. The test failures are trivial ones and should
 be possible to resolve very quickly.

 * Since the last postponement of the ticket, a core committer
 @peterwilsoncc reviewed the patch and identified only one major issue. It
 was essentially the same issue I identified myself when submitting the
 patch. I ended up changing the patch and I believe the issue has been
 resolved. No one has reviewed the patch since I made the change.

 * I am biased but I believe the patch in its current state is near enough
 to be ready in time for 6.1, with enough eyes on it.
