I like this, too. Perhaps having an additional testing branch with the
more mature branches merged with each other and the latest branch would
satisfy the various requests for merged branches. This would require a
kind of release team which deals with the merge conflicts, running
tests, keeping contact to branch maintainers. No stability
guaranteed whatsoever.
