First, let me say that i think a policy for this is a good thing. But I am a bit unsure of how you imagine this workflow to look like. When you say merged into all branches you mean cherry picking? I don't see how it would be possible to merge 4.10 to master because all the commits that change the default targets etc. would also be merged to master (and we don't want that) and i doubt i could merge 4.10 with 4.9.
Or should we no longer change the default target in the branches, this would make a real forward merge workflow possible. Can you give an example workflow for a patch that you want to apply in the 4.9 4.10 and master branches and apply it to the targets for 4.9 4.10 and master?
