I've thought a bit more about all this. I may have an alternate
solution.

Great.

Yes, my other complaint is that testing is automatically feeded by
unstable ...
Since we have t-p-u, we could apply the testing criteria on t-p-u
and not on unstable. That way we remove the unstable->testing link.
When people want to update packages in testing, they have to upload in
t-p-u ...
We just have to advertise t-p-u a lot more (so that it gets tested) [1].
What does I miss ? This would satisfy all my complaints.
Cheers,
[1] The extreme solution to force people to test it is to rename
t-p-u in testing and testing in candidate ... ;-)
