I'm not sure exactly what you're objecting to here.  My current plan
looks like this:


                                               /--          /--
                                              /            /
                                        /---0.9.n+1--//---1.0--1.1--//
                                       /
          /--          /--            /
         /            /              /
   ------0.9--------0.9.1----//---- 0.9.n
                                     \
                                      \
                                       \                 /--
                                        \               /
                                         \-------//--1.1.1----



Do you want the big branch to come _after_ 1.0?  If so, I'll think
about that.  Of course, none of this is set in stone.  Or even in
peanut butter.  :-)
