I think it's more important to test against XP from an API level as that's
what most
software is installed on

Whilst parts of our kernel try to target 5.2 changes, from a testing
perspective it should be
pretty much identical to 5.1.

IMO, unless you're a kernel dev interested in implementing some of the more
elegant kernel
features in 5.2, then anyone with a 5.1 box is more than adequately setup
and I can't think of
any worthwhile advantage in having a 5.2 install.
