I'd say it's absolute wrt. to requiring permission from the release manager. The point of not allowing new features after a beta release is that one wants to avoid getting untested new features into a release. For that goal, it is not that relevant whether the new features are guaranteed not to break any existing features - they still don't get the testing that the beta releases try to achieve.
