The changes are minimal, and it will be easy to make a version that runs in both 2.14 and 2.12. I can add it easily
About plugin releases, we do that since sometimes there are important changes and it was better to release instead of waiting for the next QGIS release. AFAIK, no other core plugin does that, and there are no guidelines for it. I will be happy to discuss about it, eventually help writing those guidelines, and making Processing comply with them.
