Beta 0.7.0

Note: Identical to 1.0.0rc6

About

This is the first non-pre-release of a large set of changes destined for 1.0.0. We decided to do a regular beta release, as there should be no breaking changes and the main branch has been without major issues for a few months. This release contains many fixes and improvements compared to 0.6.x.
