I you aim for a bug free release then it will never happen. We need to 
prioritize the bugs, and if you do not find bugs for some minor new features 
because you don't document them then this is not nice, but better than a 
2.1.0 release in 2015.

I asked already for a list of features with missing documentation, but got 
no reply, so here is the question again: Which features are not yet 
documented?

It can't be super annoying. This is known for several months, and there is 
no bug entry targeted to 2.1.0 (if my search was correct there is no bug 
entry at all about this problem).

This is fine, I guess it applies not only to the installer, but also the 
sources itself.

Would be nice to have but not essential (and could easily be enhanced 
between the RC and the final release).
