When the process is very easy, e.g. Web app, you might make several releases a day. That gives you an opportunity to iteratively work out big new features. Instead of 1.4 being the first release with (any) shell support, 1.4 should be the first release with working, tested, documented shell support. Use 1.3.x for iterating over a feature, beta testing it and as RC.
