It's precisely that need people feel to cherry-pick stuff which is
the need to keep my tree 'unstable' so that I _can_ reorganize it
to permit people to base work off it.

Indeed I can - all it takes is someone to tell me what they require
and I can sort it out - and this is especially so as I'm not planning
to do anything further with my git tree after this evening (on the
assumption that the merge window will open immediately after the
kernel summit.)
I already have several 'stable' branches: pm, smp, debug, and now
l2x0.
