Here is a design that enables backporting capabilities (i.e. backwards-incompatible API changes) to maintenance branches of FreeIPA.
The premise is that no branched development occurs on the maintenance branch, only single targeted changes are brought back.
I believe it solves the problem rather nicely, and the implementation would be pretty straightforward. The downside is that uses weird API versions like '2.347+backported_capability' (which are currently valid API versions, though).
