Do you mean by "safe enough to include" that they should be
more or less done? For example, there were a couple of tickets
where you said that you take a look at while there were things
that needed to be done still. I take it that this is not going
to happen, right?
Safe as in: Not likely to cause bugs we need to solve before the
release. Once we hit beta, we are in bug-fixing mode, and the
fewer the better.

Okay. (Though it is not what I have expected beta to be. I would
have thought that software in beta is actually "likely" to have
bug rather than unlikely. I would have thought the latter is
release candidate.)
Well, we know beta will have bugs---indeed, we know of some
already---but the idea is that we do our best not to create new
bugs at that point. New features bring new bugs. That's why beta
release goes with feature freeze.
That said, at the moment we're talking about what will make it
into beta, so some risk is all right.

I have to do the tickets one by one. Should I post them here (with
reference) on the list, create a (temporary) meta bug with the list
of tickets, or just ping you on the tickets themselves?
Maybe assemble a list of them, and then post it here. I'll see it, I
hope!
You could also add a 'triage' keyword to the bugs themselves. I've
used that for this kind of purpose.

Here is a list of enhancements with milestone 2.4.0 and patches. I
guess it is worthwhile to go though them anyway and either apply or
re-target them:
https://www.lyx.org/trac/query?status=accepted&status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&description=~&reporter=~&summary=~&milestone=2.4.0&keywords=~patch&type=enhancement&col=id&col=summary&col=keywords&col=reporter&col=status&col=type&col=severity&desc=1&order=id
I will not manage to do more than give you this list. Maybe you just
ask me if something is unclear that seems more efficient since you
will look at them carefully anyway? I could also give more info on
them but that is as much as I can do for this weekend. (Maybe I
missed the road map but some warning would have been helpful a bit in
advance. I guess it was communicated on some internal list.)
It appears that JMarc's recent changes have introduced some serious
bugs. Unsurprisingly. So there is probably some leeway for these
patches. I'll also try to have a look.
If you have the time, it would be really helpful to re-target bugs
that clearly are NOT format changes. Those can definitely wait until
2.4.1.
Riki
It is a bit more complicated, I think. There are non-format changes that
are (arguably) improvements on new features introduced in 2.4.0dev.
Wouldn't it be odd to introduce such new features without the
improvements in the first place?
One concrete example are the new drop-down buttons called "DynamicMenu"
[sic]. Currently, they aren't customizable but one of my patches makes
them customizable.
Daniel
Down to 16 bugs. Does that seem manageable for you?
https://www.lyx.org/trac/query?status=accepted&status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&description=~&reporter=~&summary=~&milestone=2.4.0&keywords=~patch&type=enhancement&col=id&col=summary&col=keywords&col=reporter&col=status&col=type&col=severity&desc=1&order=id
Otherwise, I can try to take a look again.
