LL needs to remain stable, and "new" updates to its components are at the discretion of its developers.
Why change something when it works just fine as it is. Updates and fixes are a different subject all together.
If i wanted bleeding edge i would be using a Debian testing/unstable distro, or any of the others available. XFCE may be improved, but how it interfaces with the OS/Kernel is a whole different bag of chips.
To quote- "XFCE 4.12 is like a freshly-baked dessert - one that needs to cool a little in the breeze before it's sliced and served."
best analogy I've heard to date in respect to Linux.
