Mike,
I think we now have proof that the uninformed should refrain from making statements like this.
JohnK recently noted that something that has NOT been included in the (public?) beta WILL be appearing in the final product - improved object creation speed!

It seems possible to me that there could be other stuff that was 'on the brink' and subject to later beta inclusion, including the one mentioned here.

I hope that we will let MS speak to questions like this one. Or, at the very least, couch speculative responses in exactly such terms.
