given the security issues which prompted qubes 4.0 to go hvm for template vms, should qubes 3.2 users who have the hardware also switch to hvm? 

could that be an option in the 3.2 installer? are there significant differences?

It isn't easily possible for Linux VMs while keeping the level of
integration Qubes gives. For start, Linux GUI agent currently does not
work in HVM.

When all missing parts will be implemented, it would be good idea to
switch to 4.0 if you have supported hardware.
