I hope this another hint to think about policy.

At least for me I want to updated when I want.
And if this would be made via a "proposed updates" of a "backport" tree
doesn't matter.

By the way:
I'm in the party which favors to split the base system and "end user"
applications. Thus on a stable base system one builds applications.
If an application version is buggy either fix it or take the next
version. Bingo.

Kind Regards,
