Good morning. It's September 8th, and today's Vue core activity is dominated by one target: dynamic components in vapor mode.

Nearly every one of the eleven pull requests today, almost all from edison1105, chips away at how vapor handles components that switch identity at runtime. PR 15452 reworks how dynamic component branches are keyed, moving away from a keyed fragment to keying branches in place. PR 15448 makes sure a component keeps…

A second theme is correctness at the edges. PR 15451 fixes namespace handling so fallback elements inside SVG or MathML keep rendering correctly. PR 15450 makes the "is equals vue colon" syntax resolve properly on native tags. And PR 15447 stops fallthrough attributes like classes from accumulating across repeated…

The third theme is lifecycle and mounting reliability. PR 15453 routes dynamic component vnodes through the interop layer and adds warnings for invalid types. PR 15457, still open, disposes of component instances that never finished mounting, preventing stale references during hot reload. PR 15456 fixes async…
