They knows about mgaupdate which shows them updates and about

Period.
actually, that could change, i think it was stormi who proposed to adjust
mgaapplet to handle "backports for end users".
I dont think we should even think of extending mgaapplet to cover
backports at this point as we need to focus on fixing #2317 for
release/updates first...
When that part is fixed and considered stable, we can think of
extending it to support backports...

Marking the Release media as update media by default would support
update medias and backport medias, whatever the policy is later decided
to be. Unless there is a downside we haven't noticed yet then it looks
to be a simple fix.
