How long should a transition last for a package only in Sid/Testing



Hi everyone!

When there's a package transition for a package that is currently in
Stable, it's obvious that the transition packages should be available on
the next stable release.

But when the package isn't in stable (yet), and is only in Sid/testing,
how long should a transition package last? Until the next stable
release? IMO it'd be bad to have a transition package introduced in the
new Stable if the package wasn't in old-stable.

Thoughts anyone?
