Hello!

I belive Gradle has 2 month iteration cycle continiously making improvements. Starting from gradle 2.1 and up until now they have maintained good backward compatibility allowing update gradle version without breaking plugins which were developed for previous versions. They are claiming improved perfomance (I guess that's the most wanted 'feature' you wanted to hear) and I can confirm that it is a bit faster indeed. But dexing is still a blocker.
Nice overview of the current situation from the gradle creator himself at the recent android bbq
