I could not disagree more. 1.3.4 is a wasted effort; our focus is on
1.4, and I honestly do not want put the time and effort into doing a
1.3.4 beta just for a completely nontrivial UI problem for *offline
contacts* (and unmessagable) on Facebook. The rest are all
localization, and completely unimportant.

All development efforts are towards 1.4, and I'd rather work more on
that. 1.3.4 can come after 1.4 is out, not before. Let the old-OS
users suffer long; there's almost none of them anyway.
