I would personally prefer we simply bump tickets from the milestone 
periodically.  The point of a milestone is to collect tickets we expect to land 
there, and since we want to release ASAP we should have at most a handful of 
optional items there sponsored by some community members, so the burden should 
be low.

Do we gain much by introducing yet another view on Jira that nobody will 
properly maintain?  It sounds like a classic situation of having one problem, 
and simply ending up with two problems.

    Yep that makes sense to me.
    
    There's still much work to be done to exercise 4.0 builds to identify 
unknown issues that haven't yet been filed – but those items can be tagged as 
release blockers as they're identified. 👍

    Subject: Idea: Marking required scope for 4.0 GA vs. optional
    
    As we're under a feature freeze but not code freeze, there are quite
    reasonably tickets being opened for 4.0 (alpha, beta, or rc) that look like
    nice to haves for the release but wouldn't necessarily block cutting GA. I
    think there would be value in us flagging tickets that are required for 4.0
    to get out the door as blockers - it looks like we don't have the Priority
    entry anymore (a good thing imo) but we could use the label field to
    indicate which tickets are blockers and filter our JIRA board and weekly
    reporting on that. That would also help contributors know where to focus
    their efforts to help get 4.0 out the door while not stifling people
    scratching their own itch on things leading up to the release.
    
    What do the rest of you on the project think?
