Comment 2 for bug 1193487

I have rebased on master and signed off on the branch at working/collab/dyrcona/lp1193487_circ_policy_column_picker_signoff

I would have pushed this to master, but I hesitate because the bug is untargeted and I don't want to interfere with the beta churn.

I also think the release maintainers should evaluate this for backporting.
