I'm just as cognisant of our time constraints as you are, but I still
think this can work if there's a clear, written expectation (say via
RFC) that 5.7 is for migration related changes only, and should not
include new feature work. If we can keep this as "5.6 + some
deprecation warnings", I believe that can reduce the QA/development
load enough to make delivering it and 7.0 possible next year.
