It depends on what you understand with "a while longer".
A couple more weeks/months/years/Debian releases?

Obviously I think the sooner we get the usrmerge transition finished in 
trixie, the better, to be able to iron out any unforeseen issues.

As mentioned, if backportability is an important issue, then 
dh_movetousr could be an option. That said, if you want to backport to 
oldoldstable for example or older Ubuntu releases, you might not even 
have a debhelper with dh_movetousr.

Michael
