Different issues.

This is not true.  It was never part of 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/9/FeatureList

You are correct.  FESCo often asks what the contingency plan is when 
reviewing features for acceptance.  This particular feature was in 
CategoryProposedFedora9--meaning that it was being put forth for a FESCo 
vote.  I sent mail to the feature owner directly and posted status here 
a couple weeks ago.  Receiving no respose I moved it to 
CategoryProposedFeature.
