Ignoring all that, this is also contrary to how we perform testing in

We don't turn off entire classes of testing we have so we can land
patches,
that's just a recipe for disaster.
But is it more of a disaster (for the consumers) than zero testing,
zero review, scattered around the internet
if-you're-lucky-with-a-good-wind you'll maybe get the right patch
set? Because that's where we are right now, and vendors, distributors
and the cinder core team are all saying it's a disaster.
If consumers rely on upstream releases, then they are expected to
migrate to newer releases after EOL, not switch to a random branch on
the internet. If they rely on some commercial product, then they
usually have an extended period of support and certification for their
drivers, so it’s not a problem for them.

This is entirely unrealistic. Force customers to upgrade. Good luck
explaining to a bank that in order to get their cinder driver fix in,
they have to upgrade their entire OpenStack deployment. Real world
customers simply will balk at this all day long.
