If that is true, I have no strong arguments for why it "has to" be on 
emacs-26.

But I'm not seeing any cons either. It's not like there are any 
plausible Cairo build users that are fine with the current state of 
emacs-26 but would get annoyed by any possible regression that the patch 
in question might introduce.

Anyway, it seems I've already made all the applicable arguments at the 
beginning of this discussion. So I'll stop here.
