Ay, Michael's approach ist tempting, but Dmitry may be right.

But if the UI overhaul is moved from 4.5 to 5.0 we might end up not only with 4.1 (as asked by myself) but perhaps an 4.2. Not that I would worry about that. In fact as 5.0 will require PHP5 I ask for a long-lived 4.x branch after 5.0 as not everyone will do the jump into a refactored Core with new requirements and changed setup (we do plan to remove deprectaed stuff, don't we?).

PS: How about requiring Mysql 4.0 or even 4.1 to take advantage of if it's more standard-SQL-like features?
