Most of the work items for 7.0 look like good ideas for future
stability.

Except for using exception handling for errors, which scares me.

I haven't worked on slimserver at all, but I have been a programmer
working in many languages on many end user and some server applications
for over 20 years now.  Every time I've seen systems switch to, or get
designed, using exceptions as the standard error reporting mechanism
those systems have pretty much gone to hell in a handbasket.  They
usually end up being much less stable.  I've also been on the side of
converting a system away from exceptions to improve its stability --
not a fun job.

I hope people working on it look long and hard at other possible
solutions beside going down the exceptions road.
