We can keep that bias by using temporary three-digit majors in -CURRENT and backing down to a single-digit major right before the first -RELEASE. In this specific case, we'd go from 5 to 500 or 501, then back to 5 right before 5.0-RELEASE; this will still screw people with older-than-feb-10 systems but at least they'll have plenty of time to rebuild their ports and stuff. For 6.0, we'd go straight from 5 to 600 or 601, then down to 6 right before 6.0-RELEASE, and nobody would get screwed. You know it makes sense.
