@coeuvre Should we flip this flag now? https://buildkite.com/bazel/bazelisk-plus-incompatible-flags/builds/1253 says it won't break any downstream projects (ignore the rules_nodejs ones)

Bazel 6.0 is scheduled to be cut on Oct 10th, do we have enough time to implement and flip this?

I see, please add `migration-ready` label when the flags are available at HEAD so that the flags get tested in https://buildkite.com/bazel/bazelisk-plus-incompatible-flags 's nightly run, you can also [trigger a downstream...

We still need more time to finish implementing features (https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/16124, https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/11261), fix breakages (https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/16296) and flip incompatible flags, therefore we are pushing the 6.0 cut by another two weeks (to...
