Samba is a server software, gnome is a desktop suite.

Running unstable on a server is quite risky from the

story, easier and less risky for anyone (at least until now...)

Reread the social contract : one of the reasons for debian is the
users. You make the decisions, but you make those packages for users. 

Now you are right, you are the one ultimately making decisions. But
please take into account your users, you will ease the transition for
everyone.
