Well as it stands right now, at least the (admittedly more basic things) stuff I do run is working with 1.3.1. So I cannot add any exciting arguments. And upstream tends to always recommend "the latest stuff", so next week this could be 1.3.3. ;)
Technically it looks possible but with the risk of being beyond Debian right now. Which has a few challenges on the packaging side (mostly to ensure it is clear where things came from) but also the normal approach for a LTS release is to be a little more conservative about latest and greatest as that also means not that well tested/settled.
So I personally would be hesitant unless there are even more specific reasons like 1.3.2 allows to do x and that will be important because of this reason. The problem is/was that newer not only means fixes but also new breakage. So I rather stick to a reasonable pace and want to see very good reasons to move fast(er) (besides not being the runner type anyways ;)).
