Hey, dude, I pointed that URL in a followup to a message from you,
earlier today.

We don't know -- Bruce's list may contain something, but since it's
hidden we can't do anything. Maybe it is all already-completed items,
or redundant with the list on wiki, or maybe they're things that can be
postponed for 8.5. No way to tell.

My guess is that Bruce's queue contains a reasonably small number of
minor fixups that need to happen before release.
