2.4 is in -rc cycle, means there can still be bugs (ie. more bugs than
in stable ;) ). If you have more than just a few weeks to go until your
system role-out, having a look and giving it a try is not wrong. We'd
love to read your reports! ;) And you can quickly switch back again.

However, solely for the sake of this feature, I wouldn't throw 2.3.x away.
