9.1.1 Release plan

I saw the version was bumped to 9.1.1 so figured it would be a good idea to create an issue (seems fairly standard practice) to discuss what should go in it, etc.

Below are some PRs I thought would be worth adding, feel free to share your thoughts on other PRs etc.

• 9.1.1 milestones (edit: given the list it should probable be renamed to 9.2.0)
