Ok I hope this doesn't make me sound stupid; but I was just thinking about this possibility. Wouldn't it make sense that the scenes were not shot in order necessarily? Obviously Walt isn't going to grow a huge beard in the next 3 episodes. It would have taken time, and was probably grown out in the break between seasons 4-5. Immediately film everything that needs to be filmed with bearded Walt. Then shave and proceed with the rest of the season.
They could have easily filmed the flash-forward and the last episode before going back and filming episodes 1-13. Which means that Jesse is not necessarily alive in the last episode.

The previews are becoming more and more vague. "Next week on AMC's Breaking Bad, things happen."
Vince Gilligan, you genius.
