Releasing version N before version N+1's beta is not a problem. The release branch is still there. Releasing after the beta might be a problem since we may have overwritten the branches. But the SHA-1 of the commits still exist and there are the old/5.x branches. If we really wanted to, we could make releases. Branches are not stopping us from doing that.
