Well said!
I'd hate to have had to wait for months to get my hands on some of these features in a stable kernel. On the flip side, it remains to be seen just how stable 2.6.13 is now that it has been released into the wild.
Although not really a stability issue per se, I imagine that changing the default value of HZ from 1000 to 250 will "break" some multimedia applications (but at least tech-savvy users will be able to reconfigure it back to 1000 and recompile the kernel).
