Tobiasz is worried because this is what happened before - the 0.5.x
branch was cool-but-unusable, and was eventually abandoned; 1.0
descends from the 0.4.x branch, which people actually used and tested
and was where all the action happened.

So I'd just take it as a note of caution :-) Something like: 1.0
stable branch just for serious bugs (crashers, etc); master for all
new work, *but* keep master usable at all times (by the adventurous)
as otherwise it will bitrot; experimental work in smaller branches,
merge as soon as usable.
