Agreed. I think we should just declare a 3.4.0 at this point. Perfection 
is nice but we'll never reach it anyway, and it's been a stable base for 
development for half a year now, so we have quite a bit of validation.

Let's start considering 3.4.1 and 3.5. If we get into a habit of 
releases once every few months (at least bugfix releases) there is less 
of a reason to hold off on release until things are perfect.
