This is really cool, actually. And the reason I think it's actually good to be high on HN, not just the 'ooooh rust, upvote derp!' is this:

This is a point release that they don't need to do - on the grounds that it's not a bad time to do one, but it should help in the future to do point releases quickly if there is a real need to (security, etc).

There's a commitment in the rust team to making life really really good for developers, and I appreciate that a lot.
