How is a x.y.1 release of any program front-page worthy?

  It generally isn't. Similarly, a blog post announcing a new feature of a product generally isn't, either. Of course there are many exceptions, such as if there's something especially significant or fascinating in the release. Since https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7717737 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7717737 already had some attention (if not discussion), we'll treat the current post as a dupe.
