I now have very limited time for this and there is yet to be a
definitive agreement on how to proceed.

I believe Anton proposed to upload to experimental first, test
the rdepends and attempt a transition to unstable, although time may be
short.

Another solution could be to just make the upload to unstable, monitor
the autopkgtests of the rdepends and cross our fingers? I don't know.

You guys have much more experience than I have so you are in a better
position to advise and act, I guess.

Please CC me in the future as I am not automatically subscribed for
