We are already no longer supporting iceweasel in squeeze:
http://www.debian.org/security/2013/dsa-2735
At one point we stopped supporting clamav in oldstable:
http://www.debian.org/security/2008/dsa-1497
At one point there was an experiment to express the lack of security
support for specific packages using debtags. This seems to have been
dropped but you can see that sql-ledger and kfreebsd weren't supported
at one point:
