In our current thinking, your proposal to merge into a release branch is
a different thing from your proposal to merge into trunk. The outcome,
if approved, would be substantially different. I don't think
"superseded" would make sense here.

I can quite well imagine that a proposal to merge X into Y could be
superseded by a proposal to merge Z into Y, though. And I can see you
might want to re-target a proposal to a release branch instead of trunk.
 What do you think?
