Given the current bugs in mp6, would the panel advise sticking with mp5a for
the moment?

Depends whether you use the new features ( for example displace warps, glows,
... ).  I'm using Megapov 0.6 since it came out and never had serious problems
with the bugs until now.

I'll give it a try - glows look fun, and 3dwin outputs for mp6 (they're
fast!) - I can always revert without any trouble.
