It's a good idea. However, considering our development work and the  
size of the user & developer bases, I think this will only work if:
- selfupdate is modified to allow users to get -current updates
- dports/ is branched too, with a -current and a stable tree
- we use -current exactly as we use HEAD today, i.e. with any non- 
radical change, with features and bugfixes alike.
