Why?
"contrib" has the status of "not maintained" software. Therefore
I would consider it as "unstable" anyways.
I view "non-free" and "non-us" as special sections - moved from
binary-i386 into a special place for legal reasons. Dividing them in
"-stable" and "-development" would consequently mean we should divide
"mail" and "x11", too.
With the scheme Lars suggested, we do not need to divide "-stable" and
"-development" for every subset of the Debian distribution.
