I agree with whoever mentioned bikeshedding. trunk, master and "release 
branch" are all fine and I think clear enough. Or one could just use them all 
three.

As to the real issue: I think stuff submitted to review board should get the 
same handling as if it were put on the Feature Plan, i.e. only be applied to 
the hard freeze. That's most in line with what we actually want to achieve. We 
should encourage adding it to the feature plan as well, so the "RB only" is 
just an exception we know how to handle.

Now let's get back to work =)
