Why do FreeBSD ports have to be "frozen"?

I'd mark current ports tree as RELENG_5_2 tag and just let other people
go with their patches to "current" ports.

By branching ports you can still have "frozen" ports for a given release -
and normal, usual port users will not be affected by any code freezes.
