For example, assume I want to push the new feature that I have been working on: MTR-OSPF (RFC4915). Having that in the CE (thing ;) ) for a few cycles might help us understand its impact on users or whether it is worthy to be added to the main release or not. I really think there is a value there.

Oh, there might well be value in having staging areas for experimental features.

Though, let me warn people in advance, if some patch set is somehow not ready to go in to master but needs proving or something, regular rebasing may be a fact of life. I've had to carry stuff for ages before I could prove it (and accused of pushing stuff in too fast by other maintainers for it!). I've abandoned plenty of stuff too, including because I just couldn't keep up with other changes.
