There are lots of open bugs in Launchpad that have not been checked; I don't consider this a blocker, but there should be a general look at the set of open bugs to see what needs attention now.
Also, it appears that mutter has tests but they are not being run as part of the package build (they are all skipped because of no display). Could those be run in xvfb? Please see about how we can properly run the existing tests, or respond here with why it's not possible, or if there are mitigating factors (such as existing autopkgtests that run similar tests). I think we need to validate this before putting mutter in main.
