At this point, I think that you're judgement should be the
determinant as to what "low risk" is. If I were you, I would lock the 
release
branch to make sure you absolutely know about each of
of these cases.  But then you're not me so you can
do it the way you want.

The enemy of making things better is the attempt to make
things perfect.
