Two of the main features that Sublime Text 3 adds include symbol indexing and pane management. Symbol Indexing allows Sublime Text to scan files and build an index to facilitate the features Goto Definition and Goto Symbol in Project. Pane Management allows users to move between panes via hotkeys.
Sublime Text 3 is very stable, as of 22 March 2016, about 80% of those using Package Control are running version 3 and Sublime Text 3 is the default download version on its website.
