We'll have to wait and see <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
I guess as long as they're rounded the effect on bokeh (especially highlights) should not be something to worry about. We may expect bokeh in general to be a little less smooth than on the AF-S 85/1.4, but on the other hand the AF-S 50/1.8 has surprisingly smooth bokeh, too...

It depends on the design... As you know, I am not too impressed by the smoothness of the 85mm f1.4 bokeh. Taking the Canon 85mm f1.8 USM as example, it has very smooth bokeh, smoother than the Canon 85mm f1.2 L USM II. The 85mm f1.2 L USM II of course can blur more.
So, we can just wait and see.
