ok, then what about this:

let's continue developmental work on the main branch, always aiming more
on API consistency and completeness than new and independent features.
At the same time stabilize the 1_0 branch.

shortly before a potential release reconsider the state of the
developmental branch and see whether it has got sufficiently stable
and complete to justify a merge. Else release without it, and put that
new stuff into the next round (1.2).

As I'm obviously more interested into the devel (main) branch, I'd
suggest I write up a mail with suggestions on how to make the API
complete. That could be the basis of a discussion on how to work
towards that goal.
