As with any beta, you have to start somewhere.  The Plone team needed a
tag for their migration process, and I decided to call it a beta to kick
the release process.

Fine.

That can't be fixed in the CMF for 2.8.0 compatibility.  Getting the
module aliases stuff to work right if the thing being aliased is really
there is painful.

We won't adjust CMF to work around this behavior unless Tim decress that
the new behavior is permanent.  I don't think we should hold up the CMF
release for this issue either way.

I think he thought he had dones so already.
