I've had a quick look at apt source to see if I can patch it to accept
the /jessie-backports syntax.
I do not think it is a bright idea. I expect that pinning specific
packages instead of the whole backports repository should work.
Stuff related to specific distributions or code names should be
minimized in source packages since it increases maintenance burden.
