The recently released flatpak 1.0 has some features that we should have in the docs. Some noteworthy items from the release notes:

Permissions:

• Up-front verification of permissions
• A new application permission can be used to grant access to Bluetooth devices.
• New fallback-x11 permission

CLI things:

• uninstall --unused automatically removes unused runtimes and extensions
• flatpak remove is now an alias for flatpak uninstall.

Other:

• permission-* - allows interaction with the portals permissions store (can probably be added to the page on debugging)
• Marking apps as end-of-life
• Apps can now export D-Bus services for all the D-Bus names they are privileged to own

Anything else?

flatpak-spawn is worth mentioning as far as I'm concerned.
