That's quite an insult to Johannes :)

While working on the db archiving thing recently I was thinking about
how it would be great to get t-h to run this process on one of its
large/real datasets. Then I started to wonder when was the last time I
actually saw it comment.

I feel like these days Nova, by policy, isn't doing any database
migrations that can really take a long time for a variety of reasons
(i.e. expand-only schema migrations, no data migrations). That means the
original thing t-h set out to prevent is not really much of a risk anymore.

I surely think it's valuable, but I understand if the benefit does not
outweigh the cost at this point.
