You tell me.  Does the time of the build I reported fall during
that (vaguely expressed) "unfortunate period"?  The bug report is
quite specific about the build.  Why beat around the bush?

It's always next to impossible to know whether or not a change
such as C-j being undefined is by design.  There is in general a
lack of proposals followed by discussion, and a lack of help from
NEWS (until very near the end).  We come across a change and try
to guess whether it is intentional.

apparently think so too.  But until hearing that, it is not obvious
that this is not some new design brainchild.
