-1 for release, +1 for rc4.
Reason: What Sylwester said, plus Nikita from JetBrains asking nicely.
They (JB) would love to see API stability so they can ship an IntelliJ
IDEA release in time with Maven 4.
This of course applies to all other IDEs.

Nikita is on #maven in slack, maybe also subscribed here? idk.

Anyway, really strong reasons to do an RC4 first.
This should not be hasted.
