My take is that rushing things into 11 is not ok, and we are already
well past the time to be taking features (maybe by 6 months).  We should
be at bug fix only, and holding only for regresssions from 10.  It's
been a year since branch, and we're 2 years and 3 months since 10.0, so
I see us as 3 months beyond what should be viewed as the latest ok time.

That's not a comment on the wisdom or quality of the new code at all.
Just that I think adding features to 11 before release should be seen as
out of the question.
