Other than any changes/bugfixes brought by Qt5.1.1 (or 5.2-beta), the changes to Sigil itself are quite trivial. Mainly, when opening a file, any unicode non-breaking space characters are converted to the numeric entity (#160) instead of the named entity (nbsp). That way it won't break documents that didn't have (or need) a doctype. All of the handful of changes have to do with that.

If you don't really use unicode characters or entities (or all of your (x)html files already have the right doctype declaration), there's probably no real advantage to be gained. Nor any harm, for that matter.
Thanks!

So basically, as soon as you post a new unofficial deb (thanks for that, by the way) I may get around to that. But it's just bug fixes anyway, so I should feel no pressure unless I must have the latest everything for psychological reasons.
