I lost this thread (from May 19). Summarized in ITS#8435 plus a new suggestion: Revert sc_writewait and get it done with a field somewhere else, maintained by callbacks. Dunno if that's feasible.

There is no "somewhere else" to use.

I see no reason to revert the change.

The reason would be trying to not break third-party modules, like I've said. But the problem is 1.5 years old and hopefully such a problem would have been reported by now, so maybe there are very few affected modules out there.

We can simply add sc_writewait to the end of the structure, which is the normal practice for adding new fields to existing structs.
