Is there something else to be developed?  I wasn't aware of anything
that didn't get implemented already.

Was this reported somewhere?  If so, I guess I missed it.

Anyway, I think I see the problem, and I'm testing a solution.  But in
any case, starting a release cycle doesn't mean we will release Emacs
27.1 tomorrow, it just means we will start pretesting it, so there
will be plenty of time to find and fix bugs in its features.  We need
to consider only development of new features when we decide whether to
cut a release branch.
