Most of my topic branches end up being per-driver ones, with embedded
stuff that often winds up being useful for cross tree merges that
weren't anticipated.  The core changes that affect or are used by
drivers either get the relevant driver changes stacked onto the same
branch or merged into the driver branches depending on taste.
