Is there some strategy what should be backported? People who want to have everything can always use 0.20. There are two things that should always be backported: security fixes, and everything which could cause data loss or damage. Severe handling issues could be added, but nice to have things should go into 0.20.
This would have been different, if we were still in a 0.19.2 development cycle without having started 0.20.

So far all I see are usability and bug fixes that prevent FreeCAD from being useable to any degree with stylesheets. All the stylesheet fixes from the qt 5.15.1 bug, black icons on black background, disappearing tabs, unreadable url links. These are all fixed and the community is waiting. I and others have put a lot of effort in squashing these bugs. Let's get them out there where people can see them, not buried in a development release. Ps The 0.20 releases are still broken on Windows due to the QT 5.15.1 bugs. Got to start building on QT 5.15.2

This is why we really need to rethink our release strategies and why I started the discussion over at https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=57440

The 0.18.x backports were really confusing especially everything after v0.18.4 (of course it also had to do with the awkward challenge of transitioning to py3 and qt5 and that it was a 2 year release) but we shouldn't repeat that behavior.

I think we need a stable release maintainer. Someone who decides what is backported and when there are either enough fixes or a severe bugfix, decides for a new release.

For now I'll try to keep the initial post up to date to keep the overview.

From my perspective we already agree that a 0.19.2 release should be made to make FC 0.19 usable with stylesheets. So all fixes related to styles should go in. They don't change FC's functionality and I know that a lot of users love customized program interfaces.

I think the memory leak bug is kinda important, the other one I proposed that fixes the start workbench test is trivial so it can't really hurt.
