My suggestion (2c's worth) is to accept them for now, but have an 
"escape plan". Push the patches (whatever they take) upstream and throw 
away everything else.  This plan could have a specific deadline, if that 
would be helpful.

The rational is that, if there's a sufficient use base that depends on a 
particular feature / enhancement then this should provide some 
motivation for the upstream team to accept the enhancements.  Of course 
this might require some tinkering with the patches to get them accepted.

However, I'm not directly or indirectly affected by this (and my 
suggestion would involve more work for others) so feel free to just drop 
the features.

HTH,

Paul.
