Although I understand that the risk associated with such cleanups is relatively small, it's far from negligible and the benefits are nearly nonexistent. These activities should be done after the release. Of course, tagging the "clean" state is still perfectly possible. It just won't be the release tag.
Yours, Petr. PS: I don't admit any other possibility. The last thing we need is a bikeshed fest on this topic. I hope everyone understands...
