I'd rather see a best-release than a quick release.
Some of that,however, will depend on how the beta goes.
Classically Jon's betas are very stable. Since they delayed it for at least 4 months, I would suspect many of the little bugs are worked out.
V4 was in beta for some time before it went final. The big issue, I think was the installer, which remained an issue, but that is the nature of change of platform.
Let's see how V5 goes. We really need some of those fixes.
