I think that's definitely a good idea. An advantage of 10 days is that it always
spans one weekend whereas five days might - with poor luck - not include
any non weekday days.
Quite a lot of people - even in this always online world - would be more likely
to find time to test a new release during the upcoming weekend, but have no
chance of doing it on a working day/night.
