We can still always ask people to confirm that their specific bug happens in the current build. Even if it has some new ones, what we want to know is "is THAT bug still around." But I think it'd be good to relax things immediately after release, get a few "it needs wider testing, but it'll probably work" features in, so that they can start getting that wider testing that they need. It's the ideal time for significant changes (like maybe the list viewport patch, if it's ready by the end of the freeze) since they'll be bound to be glitchy, but there's plenty of time for widespread testing and fixing before the next freeze. Having releases makes the current build much more of a development target again than a user build.
