EIP-4895 for staking withdrawals is the main proposal members cared about, and it was upgraded from "EIPs Considered for Inclusion" to "Included EIPs" in the latest Shanghai specs. The other 3 are just minor changes.
Ethereum Core Devs Meeting confirms that all dev teams want withdrawals to be a part of Shanghai. EIP-4484 (proto-danksharding) may be moved to a separate update.
