AFAIK, we only fix security problems for stable (and unstable obviously).
My point is not to release unsynced arches, but able people to
test packages (avoiding the use of unstable or backported unstable
packages to stable, which IMHO doesn't help) ASAP.
This could happen before the freeze only. The freeze would make
mandatory the sync for packages that couldn't manage to be
synced.
