Glad we're on the same page!  Would be great to also hear from Scott and Andrew.

The Roadmap points to a few features that are not consistent with a
point release.  For instance, CAS-1032 would change default behavior
consistent with a minor release and CAS Service Registry Improvements
seems like a fairly big change/improvement to warrant a minor release.
 EhCache module is also on master. -

At this point, it might be sufficient to roll with a 3.5 in the next
couple of months and reserve cherry picking features for 3.4.12
release if there's enough pull and desire.
