I'm confused, isn't the idea of #1 to not have a feature branch at all?
In any case, I have a slight preference for #2. I suspect that the majority
of changes to trunk will be optimizations, which should be reasonably easy
to merge into 0.9. A separate branch also more clearly advertises the
"prototype-ness" of 0.9 functionality, discouraging accidental, blind
dependence on it. Plus, you've offered to maintain it :)
