painting brickwork before plastering?

There's a crumbly brick wall in my kitchen and other rooms
so I'm planning on giving it a quick brush down
then painting it with mortar paint.

But in a year's time when I've fixed the roof and ceilings etc
I will want to have it plastered or drywalled-
will i be making problems for myself by painting it,
is there anything i should do to make it easier?

the wall is uneven where the lime mortar has crumbled...

thanks

why?
because its porous?
its an internal wall,
so maybe if i leave one side porous in case of moisture from above,
and paint the other side with masonary paint?
is that a good idea?
