You are actually correct on both points above. It just so happens that 
to date we have not made a bug-fix-only release. 1.5.0, like its 
predecessors, has beta because of the new (or significantly modified) 
features it introduces that we feel may require some time to mature.

We are thinking about replacing the current release numbering scheme 
with something different altogether.
