 Cosmological cell biology
To what extent this stage b of the metaphase also constitutes a separate stage in the same sense as the other stages of mitosis is not yet clear to me. But I have the feeling it does.
A problem that has to be more investigated and meditated upon is of course the finding of the essence of and turning points between the stages of mitosis that are not yet clear from the above description; i.e.

 Study describes basic mechanism in cell growth control involving damaged DNA
CHAPEL HILL -- As interactions of cellular proteins increasingly take center stage in basic biomedical research, studies are revealing a complex molecular choreography with implications for human health and disease.
"Inevitably, the molecular pathways controlling many cellular processes such as DNA repair must interact with those regulating cell division," said Dr. Yue Xiong, professor of biochemistry and biophysics at UNC.
Scientists have learned that the cell's ability to earmark proteins for recycling or degradation, often a target of cancer development, is key to controlling cell division.

The cell may contain a pair of centrioles (or microtubule organizing centers in plants) both of which are organizational sites for microtubules.

The spindle fibers disperse, and cytokinesis or the partitioning of the cell may also begin during this stage.

 Cleavage: modified cell cycle
One reason for this is that cleaving cells have a modified cell cycle, in which the two gap phases, G1 and G2 are completely omitted, and the cells cycle rapidly between M and S phases.
In addition, because the major cytoskeletal systems of the cells are largely devoted to mitosis (microtubules) and cytokinesis (microfilaments) during rapid cleavage division, there is typically an antagonism between periods of rapid cell division and cell movement.
Thus as the embryo approaches gastrulation, there is a tremendous slowing in the rate of division (note the slope of the curve at the right).
