I don't want people to glance at a '4.9' directory along with 4.8, 4.7, etc.. until we actually have something called 4.9 release. Relying on users to actually look inside the directory and see that we only have RCs and not the final release is I think asking too much.

Just a thought. If you put all of the RC ISO images in a directory named "4.9-RC" (i.e. you create it when RC1 comes out, and put all of the follow-up RC's in that same directory) that might be a good compromise. That way operators who need to do something special just need to do it once at the beginning of the beta cycle. And it isn't horribly different than what's there now - they just need to look one (fairly intuitively named) directory lower. This also provides more-or-less consistency. As you say putting them in the directory 4.9 would be bad - it would need to start off being open and then shift over to closed when the release really comes out and the real ISO's are placed there for staging.
