Is there any reason *not* to do it now? As a matter of fact, I do not see unmerged branches as a big problem.
I can see at least one advantage of this: do it now and we do not have to bring this problem up the tenth time.
Moreover, I think this should be done _before_ a major release, not afterwards. This will make it much easier to backport 1.6 stuff back to the 1.5 stable branch.
