Have you installed it and are there any known unknowns you can tell us about?

Is this number 4.5 your unknown in this respect. How did you make it from 3.1?

So far so good. Did some uninstalls of current apps, installs,
re-installs and it works fine. I don't know yet how Microsoft went
from 3.1 to 4.5.

Will the new installer be offered via Windows Automatic Updates or is it
optional?

It is optional but I would recommend updating to it as I now
understand that one of the neat feature available is snapshot
installing. Programmers and developers may take advantage of this
feature so it doesn't hurt to be future-proofed.
