Correct.

I'll verify with Chris on this. Its obviously low risk, and I have 3 
patches going into the next pre-release, so it may go in.

Traditionally, we try to keep the number of patches applied to the release 
branch small and limited to regression fixes only. loop-deletion is really 
a new feature, which is why I said it wasn't critical to go into 2.3.

Thanks,
