The list of rules on what kind of patches are accepted, and which ones

impression that new features are not accepted at all, but that's not true:
new features are not accepted unless they fix a reported problem.
Update documentation with missing rule.


Are there any other examples of problems that can "only" be solved by
introducing new features? Or new huge features that are virtually
harder to backport?


Here's an example:
