I would add these two others:4) Describe the move to a GUI by default in the NEWS file, and document the existence of --no-gui option and octave-cli for restoring the old behavior.
Yes, this will be mandatory when releasing to unstable. We should also document the fact that autoloading of package will be disabled by default, what my break users' legacy code.
RafaelP.S.: @Sébastien: I sent my previous RFU message before rading your message above. If you see fit, you can add the items in d/NEWS before the release to experimental.
