I guess others should chime in on this. Can someone describe for me what 
these changes have involved?

FWIW, I've been using the master branch for daily work for some time and 
have not run into any new major issues. A few small things with line 
breaking, but they're hard to reproduce. I think one invovled a 
quotation mark that stayed at the end of the previous line, similar to 
another bug I reported.

The one larger problem is one I've also reported but never been able to 
reproduce reliably. I'll have another try and report on it later. The 
basic problem is that I get compilation errors if I continue editing 
while the document is compiling. It appears to me that generated files 
are wrongly being deleted by the main thread while the background thread 
is working. The error message usually concerns missing citations, 
because the generated bibliography files have gone missing.
