The problems you are describing is part of the package when you use
experimental.
Apport does stop you from reporting a bug if it detects your installed
packages to be obsolete. I can see a "-f" / "--force" option, so the
wishlist tag.

This will take some time because I first need to talk about apport with
the community to see how we want to fit it into the project. Until then,
it'll remain in experimental only.
