The same for many branches: having a snapshot of ReactOS state at a
revision.
So, if after the bug is fixed, but other stuff got broken due to sync,
patches, implementations, whatever, we can just backport the fix to the
branch and release 0.3.14 with the branch.

And if trunk is stable enough, then, we drop the branch, and start again
with something fresh.

So, I support this idea.

And once more: I don't agree with a release shipped with mshtml bug.
