I am sorry, but we don't backport new features into stable releases unless
there is a really compelling reason. Otherwise, the chance to break

is too high.


Thank you very much for your answer.
I was almost sure about it, but as the patch is tiny, I was not 100% sure :)
It's clear, and in compliance with Debian's rule.

Thank you again !

Ben
