Not sure I agree. Experimental functionality wouldn't require a minor version update as it's disabled by default. Heartbeat interval is also configurable and a minor change as well....

I saw that some features, e.g. "Add Experimental Content-Security-Policy-Support (CSP)" and the "heartbeat interval" were added to this release. I might be wrong, I think that according to semver this would raise the version number to 1.7 , http://semver.org/ says: "Given a version number MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH, increment the: [...] MINOR version when you add functionality in a backwards-compatible manner." What do you think?
