This would be my preferred solution. Most of the major features of Plone 
5 have been built to be usable in 4.3. The hope is that getting them 
real world use would give us feedback on what does/doesn't work before 
Plone 5 is released. I'd rather we provide a clear path of how to opt in 
to using those packages in 4.3. Timewise, it's going to be far quicker 
than cutting a new feature release.
