Jolla guys have been mentioning of being able to prepare a WIP adaptation in 24hrs, so this part should be at least far from unlikely. Still, if whole XDA forum lacks a pentesting-able device...

I really dislike the new cover background. It's too fussy, too bright and the texture doesn't fill the cover tile it sits on. The tile has square corners but the texture has rounded corners.
People at least now gets the contact type right indicating work/home etc but you still can't edit contacts from Google. Needless to day, CardDAV/CalDAV didn't make the cut this time either.
I seem to have had more low memory app shutdowns since the update.
Keyboard improvements are good though it still doesn't switch to uppercase after a period.
Typing in textareas in the browser has improved though the cursor disappears occasionally.

Sure, it will have to use libhybris and Android drivers. I thought that was their major plan (to use CM hw adaptation with libhybris for Sailfish). I.e. at least until native glibc drivers for any SoC will appear. Even with efforts like Freedreno, it doesn't seem to be happening on a scale to make such SoC usable. Probably until Intel will release open drivers for their new SoC in 2015 libhybris is the only way.
