We could create a separate nginx source package, called nginx-mainline, that conflicts with the other nginx packages. It would be the mainline branch, whereas nginx would be the stable. While this is an option, we have to keep in mind: this means maintaining two, distinct packaging trees - the plugins as is for -full, -extras, etc. with the third party plugins do not all build on 1.7.x as they exist now. Downstream I had to upgrade those plugins to make that all work. This means more work for the maintainers as is now. And, debian/ packaging changes have to occur in two places instead of one, which further adds to the workload.
