There is nothing /wrong/ per se. AFAIK there is no urgency to fix
CVE(s) in testing/sid. Packager will now need to integrate your upload
in its history, which may delay 2.1 release even further. And as a
result 2.1 will be identical to 2.0-2+deb7u1, except it would have
been 'cleaner' from my point of view.
