I literally just came from my local Apple Store where I got my Retina MBP serviced for two clusters of hot pixels. The Genius had to look up the policy to see if it was covered, and came back saying that Retina MBP screens will be replaced for even a single defective pixel. We were both surprised.

Where are you? Apple's warranty policies often vary from region-to-region.

Oooh, I might have to look into that, thanks. I have 3 or 4 and am still within AppleCare time :-)

If you can get to the panel itself hot pixels can often be massaged out. really.
