Well, technically yes, but as the purpose of this "carrot" is exactly
"if user want to get backports repos opened" then "user need to help
fix #2317 (or help find someone that can)" :)

Point is that we are slowly killing QA, wich means at some point it will 
stop working -> we might as well stop doing releases.

And people are also dreaming of LTS, wich with current resources
will never happend.

So we _really_ need to help QA minimize their workload as much as
possible.
