I'm trying to write this in a way that does not come across as sarcastic or ungracious, but does it strike anyone else as odd that this change blocks on the next version of the underlying programming language?

Given that both the language and the forum are developed in tandem, and are linked to the degree that they ship together, it wouldn't be surprising that changes in Arc would be made specifically with the forum in mind.

Given that this is, to the best of my understanding, one of if not the only things Arc is doing.

No.

It probably could be done in the current version, just not done well.
