Hmm, IIRC this was one case that *really happened*, and I was trying to
catch the flavor of our IRC discussion at the time - my memory is that
we were willing to accept such bugs as blockers, but we'd maybe be more
likely to waive them for only affecting a small amount of users or
being workaroundable or something like that. I can go back and check
the logs again, though. What do other folks think?

 The Gnome logout hang/delay bug in Fedora 23 prevented changing the language in live images for me: I asked Adam about proposing it for a blogger. I never proposed it as a blocker as the issue got accepted under more straightforward criteria soon after.

I would rather have an explicit criteria for language change for beta if there is need to have working mechanism to change language before final release.
