No - the idea is to fork 3.2 just before uuid mailboxes lands. The question is:

1) fork now, put all other fixes on both branches.
2) do the 3.2 prep work first on master, then fork that before merging uuidmailboxes.

> Whether we fork the 3.2 branch now, or wait until we're closer to releasing it, doesn't really matter to me. Though if we have a bunch of stuff we're still stabilising, it's always easier to do that work on master only rather than juggling it on two branches. But either way, it does mean the mailboxes-by-id branch needs to keep sitting on the side and being rebased until after 3.2 becomes its own branch.

Yeah, that's the challenge isn't it :) Which is less work / safer / more understandable.
