I did a little bit of rewording, and added in (for convenience),
linkage to the release notes. (It's handy for anyone reading the
announcement!)
I don't see any features that are in the release notes that seem like
they strongly need to be added. The ones that seem plausible, but
just a bit too marginal for the announcement, to me:
- deferrable unique constraints
- VACUUM FULL improvements
- binary upgrade
