I very much agree that there's a problem. Interestingly, for the
stable requests I file, it seems that e.g. alpha does better than
amd64 right now, thanks to having a very dedicated arch team.
It makes a lot of sense to me to allow maintainers to stabilize
packages after 30 days or so at least if there is a previous stable
version.
