With kdelibs didn't we switch back to branch and tag it from master even
though master is "closed" (which was not true due to some bugfixes)? It was a
pain when you had to use kdelibs from branch 4.x because master was *older*.
Ask David Faure how many times he got complaints to merge the branch to
master...
For this reason I suggest to keep master as now and branch from there every
time and for a bigger refactoring use a branch (yes, this is the opposite I
suggest for normal development, because here the intention - as i understood -
is a very big change).
