See my reply to Martin.
A branch would be only for certainly broken features at the time of release, 
making the initial release little more stable than the trunk is now.
The branches could also be left out from the plan if they are a problem. The 
main idea was a timely release + its maintenance.

I think most people agree that the current situation is not good.
People are waiting for a "perfect" release while in practice using the 
unstable development version?
