I think yes, but I'd like a branch from the last version intended for
bookworm to exist first.

We can either do debian/master + debian/experimental (like dbus and glib2.0)
or debian/unstable + debian/master (like you've preferred to do in most of
GNOME in the past). Either works as long as it's clear.

I suspect xdg-desktop-portal-gnome 44 is unlikely to be appropriate for
Debian 12 either, unless the changes happen to be very small this cycle.
