Use a different repository. We've been doing this for changes where we
needed a branch while unsafe new changes were worked out and it works
great. It actually plays to the strengths of MC since you can simply
merge the trunk (or vice versa) into the new repository and so stay
up-to-date with whatever goes into trunk. Repositories are cheap to set
up too, so the only thing you need to keep in mind that when you commit
the code you commit it to the right repository (this can be done by
removing the original if need be).
Hope this helps,
