Really, if you consider that the linux kernel has a greater complexity than lyx (I do) notice how they have managed to introduce new features without the need for an unstable branch.

Side note: That's exactly what I was proposing for 1.5.x:
- main development in 1.5.x: bug fixing, dialogs update, etc. No file format change.
- XML development in 1.6.0svn.

This would mean that 1.6.0svn will have to be synchronized against 1.5.xsvn regularly. As 1.6 is mainly about XML, I reckon this would be easy. The great benefit of this scheme is that you have a stable platform for development.
