The "rule" is (roughly): after the first release candidate for a given release, no more "new features" for that particular release. Only continuing work to complete new features in rc1 and fixing regressions reported from previous versions should go in subsequent release candidates. Possible exceptions may be made for bug fixes deemed "important" and "broadly applicable and helpful." In the end, it's always a judgment call, and up to the folks preparing the releases to decide what goes in and what has to wait till next time.
As Nils said, the only stuff guaranteed to be in a release is whatever is in 'master' already at the time the first release candidate is made.
