I'm in favor of something as Colin described with the caveat that
0.9.22~rc1 or some variant will work "better" due to many packaging
tools' lexicographical sorting.  I'll also note that Gentoo appears to
have been doing something similar for a while with unofficial
versioning: 
http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/media-sound/pulseaudio/

In terms of process, Ubuntu 10.10/Maverick still needs to merge a few
outstanding patches from stable-queue, but I don't anticipate that
being a blocker after the release of 10.10 Beta.
