My advice would be to delay any improvement (except for fixing
regressions) until you are at the *start* of a development phase.
We're talking about three kinds of cases: fixing old bugs, fixing new
bugs, and changes that are not bug fixes. You're grouping the first
case with the third; I think it belongs with the second.
I think it is misleading to describe bug fixes as "improvements".
That word suggests something optional, and bug fixes are not optional.
