| Ah, I see.  Thanks.  Now why is this documented in the apt-get
| manual page, rather than the apt.conf one?

Because of TIMTOWTDI.

The other solution is having something like

Package: *
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 600

Package: *
Pin: release a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 50

in /etc/apt/preferences.
