That's backwards. If you want the default to be safe, and the exception to be the wild west, we should configure it *just* like backports. NotAutomatic on the server side, no surprises for people without the right apt preferences bits in place. The buildd chroots already carry a pin for backports to reverse the effect of NotAutomatic, and could as easily do so for proposed, if there was consensus that this behaviour change is the Way and the Light. ...
