Now for a few observation. The first thing you won't notice is much difference in the size of the rom; only about .12 MB smaller. On a soft reset, free memory is at approximately 80.8/105.5 MB for Storage/Program with nothing extra installed. Maybe seems a little quicker on start up and maybe a little smoother on the slide bar than 2012. But that may just be because it's been so long that I used a straight Sense ROM; i.e., no SPB MS or Co0kie or MaxSense. The available 12 quick links on the home tab are very nice. Not much more to say about it, and that's probably the best news possible - no bad news.
I'll probably be loading up the rest of my apps and gui modifications today and see how it goes over the next few hours. If there are no deal breakers, everyone should see a very light 2.5.2016/23541 and a very light 2.5.2016/21895 in the next day or so.

The second, initially brought up by MWALT, is Sense restarts after rotating the Photo and Music tabs. If a rotation is done on the home tab and then one slides over to the Music or Photo tab, all appears well. These issues have been posted on Programatix's thread, so I'd like to see if there is any easy workaround.
I don't consider these deal breakers, so I am still planning on posting 2016-based ROMS soon. In fact, 2016 is so nice IMO, that I'm holding of on installing Co0kie or MaxSense on my phone with 2016 to see if I can "live" with this level of functionality. In my case, I'm loosing the list of calendar appointments, some additional quick links, the HD Mini Locker and the music player on the lock screen; nothing that a "click or two" or a "slide" can't easily resolve.
