  Your master plan implies branching early and heavily committing to

  Your master plan is blocked by bug #99999999: "migration to
subversion".

The real issue with handling development in parallel branches is
really complexity of merging.  This is an area where Subversion
doesn't really buy you much over CVS -- you still need to manually
keep track of what you merged to do a repeated merge.
