Well someone was fired from DW (I want to say the scene continuity guy) around the airing of S5E5 and Moffat wrote a disparaging comment on Twitter which he later removed.
It's widely held that the 11-dangling-from-the-Tardis scene that made it into the episode was the wrong one (a near finished draft shoot). The CGI is terrible and plain wrong in places.
In the first half of S5 there's a vast number of fuck ups with extras walking past twice, scenes out of flow (check Matt pulling the glowing Tardis key from his pocket... it happens twice). The CGI model from the RTD era was used in the scene where River blows herself out the airlock, which is incredibly noticeable in High Definition due to it being an SD render.
I think where the 4th wall is broken and you can see a definite fuck up then it's an accident. Where it's a subtle nearly unnoticeable moment then it's intention.
I AM A NERD! --actually not really, the mistakes are just so astoundingly obvious in HD.
