What are you referring to as the "current approach" here? The way
things have been done in the past, or the proposal at
http://wiki.dlang.org/Release_Process?

I'm pretty sure the latter actually addresses this problem as well: A
fix that addresses regression or critical bug is merged into the
oldest release branch it should end up on, and then merged
subsequently into all newer release branches and master
(http://wiki.dlang.org/Release_Process#Regression_fix).
