My main concern is test coverage. If we had more formalised testing
(of the style of http://wiki.laptop.org/go/TestPlan_8.2.0 ) and the
manpower to do it, then we'd know more.

(I am working on getting some QA organised.)

It is great that more people are getting actively involved.
Stabilisation is a tricky aspect though -- it is about mapping the
invisible parts of the iceberg as well as fixing the bugs themselves.

cheers,
