To be more specific:

We need to be aware that the KDE release cycle includes to make stable
branches from master from time to time (currently every 4 month).
Putting unfinished work or work which breaks other stuff into master
without any guard results into having a broken stable umbrello in 4
month at the latest. For work, which could be enabled with a few #if...
#endif blocks,  there is support in umbrello build system  (see
https://github.com/KDE/umbrello/blob/master/CMakeLists.txt#L246)
to not having them in stable relases until someone has reviewed the
topic, fixed all unfinished stuff and enable it explicity.

The following incomplete or untested features are currently present in
git master:

- show documentation in classes
- new c++ code generator, which is major broken
- objects dock window

>From the frameworks-GSoc branch I guess the commit relating to data type
modifier and qualifier widget stuff would be a candidate for this.
