@Bowen I started marking essential stuff as blocking (with fixVersion 1.4.0). You're right, that we should start moving things to 1.5.0 that are not blocking and that we don't think will make it into 1.4.0. I think we can only release 1.4.0 if there are 0 (zero) unresolved issues with fixVersion 1.4.0.
