We really shouldn't release if we already know it will be a downgrade

(this week I told a colleague that maybe he should upgrade to 0.48.4 for
some fixes, and he did so. Shortly after I received a mail telling me
that he could no longer get grid-snapping to work (anybody working on
fixing the very broken settings system and restoring the previous
behavior?) and that memory usage had exploded, so he went back to
0.48.2, and I guess he'll never think about upgrading Inkscape again)
