No-one is really working on back-porting changes to 5.5, so what you
see now is likely to be almost identical to what you'll get as
5.5-release.

Yes, development of the branch is effectively ended since the world
has moved on to 6.x.  The only reason 5.5 was released was to batch up
some of the changes made since 5.4, mostly made last year.
