Stable update policy is as follows:
1. The package fixes a security problem. An advisory by our own
Security Team is required. Updates need to be approved by the
Security Team.
2. The package fixes a critical bug which can lead to data loss,
data corruption, or an overly broken system, or the package
is broken.
3. The stable version of the package is not installable at all
due to broken or unmet dependencies or broken installation
scripts.
4. All released architectures have to be in sync.
5. The package gets all released architectures back in sync.
I don't see any of above criteria matched here. Okay, one could argue
about 2 here (the package is broken), but i don't see a reason ATM
to fix a normal bug in the next point release.
So no, i don't see this this as a valid candidate. Sorry.
Greetings
Martin
