5+ * `--resource-path` now accumulates if specified multiple
6+ times (#6152). Resource paths specified later on the command line are
7+ prepended to those specified earlier. Thus,
8+ `--resource-path foo --resource-path bar:baz` is equivalent to
9+ `--resource-path bar:bas:foo`. (The previous behavior was
10+ for the last `--resource-path` to replace all the rest.)
11+ `resource-path` in defaults files behaves the same way: it
12+ will be prepended to the resource path set by earlier
13+ command line options or defaults files. This change
14+ facilitates the use of multiple defaults files: each can
15+ specify a directory containing resources it refers to
16+ without clobbering the resource paths set by the others.
17+
18+ * Allow defaults files to refer to the home directory, the
19+ user data directory, and the directory containing the defaults file
20+ itself (#5871, #5982, #5977). In fields that expect file paths
21+ (and only in these fields),
22+
23+ + `${VARIABLE}` will expand to the value of the environment variable
24+ `VARIABLE` (and in particular `${HOME}` will expand to the path
25+ of the home directory). A warning will be raised for undefined
26+ variables.
27+ + `${USERDATA}` will expand to the path of the user data
28+ directory in force when the defaults file is being processed.
29+ + `${.}` will expand to the directory containing the defaults file.
30+ (This allows default files to be placed in a directory containing
31+ resources they make use of.)

533 * When downloading content from URL arguments, be sensitive to
634 the character encoding (#5600). We can properly handle UTF-8 and latin1
735 (ISO-8859-1); for others we raise an error. Fall back to latin1 if
836 no charset is given in the mime type and UTF-8 decoding fails.
