You always create a branch for the release (subversion doesn't make

I agree.
Version control systems are built to avoid precisely the situation
which is being discussed here - we should take advantage of that.I would leave that up to the release manager.
Imposing a freeze simplifies the release process, so I would like to
keep it.
