Awesome.  :)

It doesn't look like 159 will be a candidate though.  It can't 
seem to run several apps, such as the camera, gallery, dropping 
letters, calculator, and authenticator.  Also some issues with 
alarms, online account settings, various crashes, and whoopsie.

I've noticed a few smaller issues too, most of which are old:

  - "Settings -> Accounts -> Back" once again leaves the base 
    settings app in a state where it can't run the account 
    settings app.

  - Can't seek in songs in the music app.

  - Calls can be accepted during the initial setup wizard, but 
    the dialer isn't shown so the user can't hang up or change 
    settings.

  - System still doesn't auto-detect time zone.

  - Password entry fields don't show the last character typed.

  - Alarms play at the same time as music, and the default sound 
    is a bit quiet, so it might not even be heard.

  - Alarms don't turn the screen on.

  - Hitting "show" in an alarm snap-decision dialog simply opens 
    the clock app, without going to the specific alarm or even 
    the alarms tab.

  - "Departments" is an awkward way to say "Categories" in the 
    app scope.

  - The user still can't tap to view full app preview images in 
    the Click store.

  - Swiping sideways after hitting 'install' on an app cancels 
    the install, but it should keep going.

  - Indicator menus still cancel the current scope activity.  For 
    example, pull down the volume indicator while previewing a 
    song in the music scope, and the song stops playing.

  - The volume indicator control is still jittery and a bit 
    laggy.

  - One of my videos still fails to thumbnail (used to work, file 
    hasn't changed, we used it as a demo video at MWC).

  - whoopsie-upload-all ran into an issue trying to collect crash 
    info, on each file it touched:

    Collecting info for /var/crash/_usr_lib_arm-linux-gnueabihf_qt5_bin_qmlscene.32011.crash...

    ... and it looks like gdb core dumped while trying to extract 
    info from the .crash files.
