I vote for this.
A lot of issues have been resolved in git master, some by myself. I have not
followed the changes in community package but used the git package from AUR
instead. It works great for me so far.
Some time ago dgod (the developer) stated he "would like to release it, but
the lxde release team has some problems to release it". He also thinks one
should not wait for a release but using git is stable enough.
I do not have any more information, but contacting him may be worth it. For
me git is just fine, I do understand packagers do prefer releases, though. ;)
