I think there's no real advantage to doing "all of emacs" at once.  For
packages that have a maintainer this sort of thing should probably be done on
a per-package basis at a time when the maintainer feels things are "stable"
(the main point being to avoid any conflict with external patches).

It probably _is_ better to not combine such changes with other feature
changes though.  If CVS were changeset-oriented, you'd at least want to make
them separate changesets.
