That sounds like a good plan. Having a reachable goal and being able to see
progress is a good way to motivate people. I would participate in such a
session.

But maybe it would make sense not to start BH sessions with the first Alpha
(because by definition Alpha releases are unstable as was proven with Alpha1
which didn't even run under Windows 8+ )

Doing Alpha, Beta BH sessions before the RC in my opinion is too frequent
and doesn't seem to be working.

I believe it would make sense to do a 5.2 BH session with RC1 with the
objective goal of verifying all bugs reported as fixed on release notes plus
bugs specific to version 5.2 (new and/or regressions) reported during alpha
and beta stages.

Of course the RC1 BH session only makes sense if there is some commitment
from TDF/developers to actually work with QA to make a "clean" release.

Just my 2 non-dev cents...
