I decided to try 5.0. I have a LulzBot Mini 2 printer, so I am coming from the LultBot Edition (LE) of Cura. Obviously, using the LE version, I am spoiled by the LulzBot dedicated predefined commands and having printer preconfigured, etc.
But, I forged ahead. My first attempt, I copied the Start and End G-Code changing things that appeared to be missing. But when I hit "slice" the program crashed. Sorry, didn't capture log. I believe that I left an undefined variable in the G-Code so it was "user error."
My second attempt went more smoothly. When I proceeded to print via USB, I was impressed to watch the printer wipe the nozzle, auto-level the bed, and proceed to start printing. So the modded G-Code worked!!! But 15 minutes or so into a 4.5 hour print, Cura crashed. Log attached. I did report the bug on Github.
I don't think the error was mine this time. You can read the log, but in essence there was an error converting a python object that was a float data type to a C++ object that was integer instance. It logged several pages of this error before giving up.
Also, for the record, This is my first 3D printer and I've had it less that 2 months. So I'm probably considered a nube. I am a programmer, so I was comfortable editing the G-code. Maybe I can up my rank to "intermediate?"

Thanks for listening.
