What is the (basic) difference between 0.7.2 and 0.7.4?

I do an ebook twice a year with Sigil. I've been using 0.7.2, but in the last Linux (Xubuntu 13.10) software update they snuck in a update for Sigil to 0.7.4. So I can uninstall that and get 0.7.2 again or I can stay with 0.7.4. I opened 0.7.4 and saw the numeric entity for the non-breaking space. I remembered there was a thread on that, read it, and that thread reassured me that my 0.7.2 was good for me and what I was using Sigil for and that the non-breaking spaces were working like they always did. I also read a thread where a guy was using 0.7.4 and he said he was losing line spaces between paragraphs, or maybe the line spaces between paragraphs were inconsistent.

Bottom line. I take an html into Sigil and make an ebook of it. That's it. Nothing fancy. Just text, chapters, toc, the basics. Doing that, do I need to be aware of 0.7.4 being substantively different than 0.7.2? Or would I be better off going back to 0.7.2?

And I noticed when I add the old nonbreaking space (   ) in 0.7.4 it seems to have no problem with that and treats it like it did in 0.7.2 (but that is just from a brief very incomplete testing).
