Thanks for noticing. I cherry-picked the other two commits now.

New releases could be made available via selfupdate immediately. Old
installers will already always selfupdate to the latest version
automatically, so the the result is the same anyway when using on older
installer.

Building package installers is the most time-consuming operation in our
release process. Therefore I was asking whether it is actually worth to
wait for them to appear before releasing to selfupdate.

However, for 2.4.3, Joshua will tag the release instead, as he is also
going to build installers right away.
