Have you considered using release branches and accepting the
possibility of a 'dirty' trunk? Projects that have to support
multiple release versions concurrently are pretty much forced to do it
that way, but it is not particularly cumbersome even if you only have
one revision deployed at a time now. And the trunk seems like the
right place to have untested development work happening.
