Overall font loading is simpler, but you might need to adapt your typescripts (on occasions I have had to define \sc in terms of \addfontfeature, but I haven't checked if that is still needed). - Regimes: MkIV assumes UTF-8. - Headings: the setups for chapter and section stoppers and referencing has changed. You have much more flexibility now, but need to adapt your style files accordingly. - Metapost: It is no longer possible to change the color of a label in metapost. (You can set it up at TeX level, so this is not a limitation...you just need to change the label commands).

you can try deepcommand=\stretched but as this macro does parsing and
lots of things can happen in titles there are no guarantees
