One more comment on this:

Stable/LTS common properties:
- Strict “backport only”, master first policy

Community status properties:
- Master first policy recommended


Could this be changed to the (recursive) policy
  When applicable, a change should already be in the
  next-higher maintained branch.

This would include that changes backported to Yocto 3.1 LTS
should already be in Yocto 3.2 community maintained.

In practice it should rarely be a problem to apply a backport
from master to an older release also to all releases in between,
and all maintained branches are supposed to have a maintainer.
