Yes! Sure, this sounds paradoxical, but my premise is that NO MATTER how
strict you make the requirement for pushes to stable, there will ALWAYS be
the possibility that "sh*t happens" and thus a need to be able to rush out
fixes to stable as quickly as possible.
And my premise is that we should be making harder for shit to happen,
and the cases where it *does* should be examined carefully to determine
the best way forwards. "Force this untested package into stable" isn't
the best way to do things.
