Would it be possible to change the bug hunting session from RC1 to RC2?
because l10n is not finished for RC1 and only fully integrated for RC2,
so that let more chance for a better QA of version+langpack.

That's the topic of the manual tests in Moztrap, each component is
launched in their different ways, creation, saving and export to pdf
for each module. Plus some known regressions like copy of chart or back
search.

Something we should ask also on the NL projects, I think they are
testing but not sure we really know about it.
