Is it ok to stabilize? 4.17.0 contains some fixes that would be useful to have in stable (bug 829859 was caused by various macros dropped in 4.17.0). https://packages.gentoo.org/maintainer/xfce@gentoo.org/stabilization mentions few more 4.17.* stable candidates, we could stable those too if okay.
We generally don't stabilize the development branch. Users have complained about that before.

Unable to check for sanity: > no match for package: dev-util/xfce4-dev-tools-4.17.0
