The policies of a normal release branch would apply to the 18 branch once
cut. That means you would not be able to just throw new features in on a
whim, but they would be held to the same requirements/restrictions we place
on the other branches (13, 16, and 17) and would be merged in before 18.0.0
is cut if they fall within that. They would also, like normal, go into the
other release branches as appropriate (and I expect that would be the case).
