I follow this same model myself. The 'release' branch is considered untouchable for the most part during a RC period, only taking critical bug fixes deemed as blockers. Anything else is considered a known issue to be addressed in a later build. Immediately following a critical bug fix in the release branch, I immediately merge it back into develop to clear the bug also for my testers and anyone who may be working on a new feature in develop. So I for one lean towards that method.
