Yes, we periodically merge from 'maint' to 'master'.

One reason, besides testing, to put patches in topic branches is that they
can be individually merged to 'master' instead of possibly building up
several of them in 'maint'.

This makes the merges of 'maint' into 'master' always trivial, rather than
an opportunity for merge conflicts.
