The developers have said explicitly that it is a Technical Preview.  They have 
asked that distros that choose to supply it should make that clear to users, 
and that they should distribute the 4.4 version as standard in SC 4,5, which 
means that you will be able to run the two in parallel, but only if you 
explicitly choose to.

The migration path is fairly well tested, but if things do go wrong it is 
possible to revert to using the 4.4 version.  However, it sounds a bit 
complicated to me so I have asked the developers to help me write up a clear 
explanation when the release gets nearer.
