To add one more reason to do this like "now" (=early 19.04) from my personal POV.
While rare today, looking into the future I'd think the availability of nvdimms will rise.

So looking forward to 20.04 we have multiple options:
- nvdimms are a thing by then, so we better start in 19.04 to get things right until 20.04
- nvdimms are a thing by then but pmdk is crap, we realize that and can take it out of main before 20.04
- nvdimms are a thing by then and get a huge boost of interest, we better start in 19.04 to be one of the few supporting it and due to that get some of that "attention" towards Ubuntu
- nvdimms are identified to be crap, we realize that and can take it out of main before 20.04
...

This goes on, but for all of the thoughts that I had starting this in 19.04 would be the best option for our way to a great 20.04.
