It simply has to be moved into unstable... then it's ready... or you can install from experimental if you're feeling particularly daring and want to be all cavalier about it...?

I was able to run Xfce4 4.10 in Wheezy on my HDD for about a month until KDE 4.8 came out.
You do need to keep in mind that in Testing and Unstable things are changing all the time. Knowing what will break your system is important and if you don't have the time to read bugreports from apt-listbugs then stay with Stable.
I understand. Just wondering because I'm using Xfce 4.10 on Debian Wheezy, which I installed in two ways:
- Compiling directly from source of Xfce. [Script]
- Using Experimental repositories.
In the case of installing from the Experimental repositories must say, the only thing I have not worked, have been some panel applets. 4.10 Xfce in general, it works without problems, at least on i686.
Which panel applets have issues in 4.10? The maintainer said that 4.10 won't be in unstable until after the freeze, so I'm thinking about installing 4.10 from experimental.

If i remember correctly no panel plugins except the built in ones were working when 4.10 arrived in experimental.
I compiled those plugins from source and they work.
I had absolutely no issues with Xfce 4.10 and i use it even before it got in experimental (i compiled from source the whole thing back then). Stable as a rock.
The only real feature change I saw in 4.10 was the ability for tiling in xfwm4. I just installed xfwm4 from an experimental repo on wheezy and everything seems fine. Other than that the difference appears minor imo. And I used arch with 4.10 for the last few months before wanting something a little less cutting edge. I can't really see any major differences.
Never even heard of a mime editor until just now , thumbnails on the desktop are nice but i personally don't use any desktop icons, and bug fixes are nice but i haven't noticed any bugs yet . All in all I'm quite happy with 4.8 and a manually upgraded xfwm4. But others might not be to each their own. Just saying that I don't anything from 4.10. But it's a huge improvement over 4.6 imo which wouldn't even let me put a panel on my secondary monitor
