I thought that: New package goes into SID = no real problem. The frozen set of packages come from testing, not Sid, so as long as procps wasn't moved from Sid to testing, then it would not mess up the "don't change libraries" stage we're in now.
A further reason to keep non-testing-destined changes out of sid is that is blocks fixes for bugs found in testing *via* sid, which is by far our preferred route.
There is testing-proposed-updates, yes, but it gets essentially no testing before landing in testing. Therefore it's preferable, at least from our point of view, to keep non-testing-destined changes in experimental until they're ready.
