This seemed like the approach folks were most in favor of at the developer
meeting a couple weeks ago [0]. At least, that was my interpretation of
the discussion.
BTW I have been testing reverting commit 151c22d (i.e., un-reverting
MAINTAIN) every month or two, and last I checked, it still applies pretty
cleanly. The only changes I've needed to make are to the catversion and to
a hard-coded version in a test (16 -> 17).
