Once the unstable version makes it into testing, apt
will track the testing version of that package, yes.
And then the user should act as A.B. recommends:
"read debian-security-announce and if needed install
fixes from unstable".
Maybe there should be a "testing-secure" variant of testing
into which "unstable" security updates get forced right
away. Then prudent users could track that instead of testing.
Priorities:
stable 900
testing-secure 800
unstable 700
