I want to see it done in 3.1, but I'd personally prefer it happens close
to the 3.0/3.1 switchover. ie the last changes to go in.

The maintainer hat on me thinks that if its not done in 3.1, I might be
back-porting stuff for a while until 3.2 is worked out. For that whole
as-yet-undefined period I don't want to be re-arranging patches because
the files are in different places.

Likewise from the point its done to the point we release 3.1 and close
3.0 series off I'll be doing the same downwards anyway.

I'd like both periods of trouble to be as short as possible.
