I think the issue William was trying to bring up is that we'll be
splitting reviews across two different locations, thus requiring
reviewers to either:

 A) follow both sites, and now I have two places to check
 B) choose one, and now there's one less potential reviewer for the
other site

Backports is appropriate for when a package is already in the next
Development release. This would involve a change in what backports  means.
