How do you intend to introduce this change? I assume that you'll add
new entry to /etc/apt/preferences.

I've been working on moving scripts building GCE images to bootstrap-vz;
you can find the latest version in my repository:
https://github.com/rybaktomasz/bootstrap-vz.git
in branch gce.
There is task in providers.gce.tasks.apt.PreferKernelsFromBackports
which makes apt prefer kernels from backports.
It creates file in /etc/apt/preferences; maybe, if there is more
people interested in using packages from backports, it would
make sense to add manifest entry describing such cases?

Best regards.
