That has certainly been a thought tooling around in the back (and some 
times front) of my mind, when setting up new installations is being 
contemplated (as it is right now).

I suppose a major question which attends, however, is this: is data 
likely to be safe between 1.3m3 and further milestone, beta, and RC 
releases?  if not, than it hardly matters, as data will have to be 
re-entered anyway.
So in other words: do the 1.3 pre-releases upgrade well into each other, 
and ultimately to the finished product?
