Perhaps you can announce that 3.X "might" be the LTS tree. And just as
3.X merge window opens, announce that 3.(X-1) is the new LTS tree. It
would be too late to have people pushing "unfinished" code into the LTS.
But, they would still push unfinished code into 3.X, but that is why
you announce it just as (or before) the merge window, so people can say
"oh crap", and then delay their half baked projects to when they are
really ready.
