the 'plan' was to have everything from nextrelease + updates in nextrelease.

yes, its that bit which makes things a bit uncertain and why I feel that
it should be by opt-in rather than by default; we just need to make sure
that we are able to reach out to the users and create enough of a
simple-knowledgebase around this subject so people can make the choice.
Also, keep in mind that 5.6/CR/ goes away with 5.6 ( ie: when 5.6 moves
to vault, there is no /CR/ migrated to vault, it just goes-away goes away )
