To be fair, the main maintainer of the Xfce stack asked on this list whether we should switch to a dev release instead of waiting for the next stable release. The consensus from the people that replied to that thread was in favor of upgrading. I'm not too surprised that Xfce 4.13 would be so buggy because there are migrating to gtk3 (leading to wayland support I think) and that's a huge deal for a desktop environment. So far I've seen one bug I couldn't reproduce in Thunar: the modal window during an MTP transfer lost track of the transfer and remained with no associated PID forever (can we call that a Zombie Window?) I think it's valuable to the Xfce project if bug reports bubble up, and it seems I've been lucky dodging all the bugs so far.
