Looking at this with my SRU hat on, I'd prefer if we could avoid
backporting a completely new upstream version to bionic especially if
there is a soname bump involved. It's not impossible of course, we do
that for certain projects when there's need for it, but I'd suppose we
would require a 'hard' rationale for that. Not sure if we have a strong
one like that here.

Security team - what changes/bugfixes do you think would be needed
before the package is good for main in those stable series? Such
information would also be very useful for us in the SRU team to assess
the situation. We could then decide if the gvfs nfs support feature is a
no-go, the libnfs security-bugfix changes need to be cherry-picked or
maybe the rationale for 3.0.0 should be revisit.

Thank you.
