I think moving sooner (well, it's too late for sooner in the cycle, but now) 
would be better for everyone.  It's a development series and if we wait for 
everything to be perfect, we'll never get there.  Mitya is already having to 
patch PyQt5 to make it work with the older Qt5 in Ubuntu.  5.2 should get into 
Debian Unstable soon (it's in Experimental already, just waiting for a 
transition slot).
