Do you need 1.4, and why? -- if you do not mind sharing.
I was building on 1.3, and had a second automated build which tracked 1.4. Periodically, I would manually update the 1.4 base image of the build to the then latest 1.4. Each of the builds would load the framework packages I needed, then load my code base. This way I could see problems with the frameworks or my code, as 1.4 progressed. At some point 1.4 was stable enough that I switched over (about 6 months ago).
... I only recently abandoned my Pharo-1.2 one-click derived image when I had troubles connecting to a DB. I figured it was time to do a complete upgrade. But it has turned into a nightmare, and my project has hit a standstill,
Yep, you don't want to be caught by surprise, when upgrading.
Pending your answers to my query about why you chose 1.4 over 1.3, I will start fresh again.
In your situation, I would choose 1.4, because Seaside, Magritte2/3, DBXTalk should work on 1.4 or will be fixed to work on 1.4 - which may not hold true (i.e. the fixing) for 1.3. AFAIK, unless you're heavily attached to Omnibrowser, then there is no reason to use 1.3.
