Is it too late for you to scratch that post?
Why? Claws it's just a tail littered with problems.
Let us spray it doesn't happen again.

Just heard a QA "Engineeer" ask a customer on the phone - "What made you wanna do THAT!??"
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

My experience has been that salespeople will promise anything to get the sale and/or retain the customer.
Whether they tell you about the feature they promised is optional.
Your compliance however, is mandatory, whether or not if it is possible.
If not, it's your fault, not theirs.
It still aggravates me when I remember the time the CEO and VP called me to bitch me out for not having something done and then finding out the two of them had decided on a new feature and neither bothered to tell me about it, but they were steamed because I had somehow failed to read their minds.

I was working on a project where the clients actually did something similar. Always managed to sneak in a requirement/feature or two directly to the developer. We were working too close to the client in this scenario and did a lot of work which we didn't charge for. Ran a big loss at the end of the day. We're talking millions. We learnt a very important lesson from this.
P.S. CEO and VP's are also clients at the end of the day. Just internal ones. They should be treated the same as external ones. They should follow the correct routes if they want to add/change requirements.
One thing I like about scrum (and I don't like everything about it) is that it is very clear on setting boundaries in this area. It protects the developer from these pitfalls very nicely.

I am still wainting for the follow up post explaining what he did, and why.
