Regarding correctness, I think it makes sense to change default values and possibly add a warning note when there's a known risk of wrong results. Needless to say that we should try to fix as many issues as possible; we still need volunteers to review open PRS.
Performances regressions are trickier but if we have the query plans (CBO + full) along with logs (including task counters) for fast and slow execution we may be able to understand what happens. Don't hesitate to create Jira tickets with these information if available. Last regarding 4.0.0 blockers, I don't think we need a special label. The built-in and widely used priority "blocker" seems enough to capture the importance and urgency of a ticket. Since I am the release manager for the next release I will go over tickets marked as blockers and reevaluate priorities if necessary.
