As you nominated these patches for 1.6.1 you either need to merge them 
yourself to the release_1_6 branch. As we don't have a procedure for 
nomination and merging, I think it would be best to just merge it before 
it will be forgotten.

We should decide on a procedure here, some list for nominating and one 
release manager doing the merges to the branch. As I said in the other 
mail in this thread, there were already new features merged back to the 
release_1_6 branch although this should not have happened.

I reviewed these as well and added comments.

I would really like to see #11759 getting fixed, but my supplied patch 
is not necessarily the best solution. I think there must be a better way 
to do that a few levels above the registry.
