Generally it is. But while preparing the lenny release, it's convenient to use unstable as staging area for possible upgrades to the lenny package. Once a 1.6.0.x version is available in sid, I cannot upload a 1.5.6.x-y version anymore, which should last some time in sid for testing before migrating into lenny.
