Does this really warrant a 4.0 release?

I hate to be a spoilsport, but does this really warrant a 4.0 release? I don't really see anything in the changelog that would support a 1.+ release. Maybe a.1+, but not a 1.+.
Hm... I keep going over it and see stuff like 'Removed all Gemini hooks from MySQL' or 'New character set latin_de which provides correct German sorting'. The only major things I'm seeing right now are the SSL support, support for UNION and boolean fulltext search.

Am I missing something?
