If you test a 1.3.x version for production deeply and it fits your  
needs,
use it but don't update until you want to invest the time again to test
it again deeply. That's more or less meant as a warning for users of the
cvs version.

I hope so. Backwards-compability is often something that slows down
innovative development. I wouldn't mind if 1.4 don't open 1.3 docs  
anymore
if there are many improvements.
