Pekka, 

I've proposed (1, 2) before... That's why I've moved my last remaining FC1 
systems to testing - I've just not had problems with the updates, and I'd 
rather run a secure but occasionally unstable system than an insecure but 
"stable" one. 

Oh, and I've had ZERO problems with stability...
