Terry: Correct.

As 3.4 is in security fix mode, and 2.7 doesn't come with the launcher (which I hadn't realised - thanks for pointing this out Zach!) the only real backport candidate is 3.5, so I definitely don't think it's worth backporting just for that.

Maybe it would be worth making a link available to the latest version of the installer, though, for people who want to upgrade. What do you think, Steve? From what you said I get the impression it's already there, just needs adding to the download page.
