v5.3.0-alpha.1

This alpha release was built and shipped from the branch in #2099. We did that to make sure none of the configuration changes broke our deployment processes, but also shipped some changes.

Once we get a few weeks of usage data and verify things are good, we can ship a full 5.3.0. I'm feeling optimistic about doing that shortly.
