Unfortunately 4.64.2 still has it!
I just restarted my computer and AB only
to find 4 black indicator panes.

Second last may not actually be the safest. (for
example 4.64.1 has
'black pane' bug while newest 4.64.2 does not have
it)
Actually better 'strategy' is to wait 24 hours
since the release of the beta.
If you do not see any problem reports on this list
you can assume it is 'safe'.
I just got the idea to provide "BETA SCORE"
to beta releases.
The higher the score is, the more important
changes were done and thus
there is more risk that something is not working
properly.
The meaning of scores would be:
1 - production quality or "release
candidate" (very safe)
2 - one of final betas before the official release
(safe)
3 - regular beta, few new features/fixes (no major
problems)
4 - early beta many new features (may exhibit some
problems in new features)
5 - early beta with fundamental changes (may
exhibit many problems)
6 - very early beta (may be unstable/crash and
have all kinds of problems
The ranking for last betas would be:
4.64.0 - beta score = 5
4.64.1 - beta score = 5
4.64.2 - beta score = 4
