I am running Jaunty Jackalope, and press reports have caused me to avoid Karmic Koala so far. I am hoping to upgrade to Leprous Lizard (or whatever the next distribution will be called) directly from Jackalope. Will that be possible?

No. You can't skip releases.

I always recommend a fresh reinstall anyway, so it is a non-issue for me.

No, you'll have to upgrade to Karmic, then to Lucid from there. Your best bet is going to be a fresh install any way you look at it.
