That would have been a much better answer to #766708.

How can we avoid this getting blocked by the TC having to draft the
`temporary overrule' ? Should the TC expect a submitter of a bug in a
situation like #766708 to provide a draft of an `interim injunction' ?
If so then this should be spelled out on the TC wiki page, or
somewhere, perhaps. And then it should be conventional for the first
TC member to read the email to, as a matter of routine, call for a
vote on {interrim overrule, immediately close bug with no action, FD}.
Such an `interim injunction' should usually have an automatic expiry.
That might help concentrate the minds of the TC by giving a deadline.
Ian.
