This release contains some optimizations to startup time, which may be significant if you create a lot of widgets. There are also some visual updates to Markdown.

This release will break your snapshots, although I don't expect any visual changes. If you are using the snapshot plugin, you will need to regenerate those snapshots. Even if you give them a quick scan, this should only take a few minutes.
