The reason that x.y.z releases are restricted to fixing defects is that
introducing the larger amount of new code that usually goes along with adding a
feature (or re-adding it, as in this case) can introduce new bugs/regressions,
and users rightfully expect a bugfix release to improve their stability rather
than impair it. The project has a big interest in making sure that users don't
fear upgrading to a bugfix release for whatever else might be in it.

Trust me, developers would often love to smuggle new features (or old ones)
into bugfix releases; it takes discipline to hold back things, too, but it's
very important.
