True, it does not address those problems, and we should try to address
them.  But it does address other related problems, and we will be a
lot better of if all the _public_ security issues in debian were
solved, and having a proven security framework for testing and
unstable might make it easier to adjust the framework used for stable
to make it better.  If all the public issues are solved, I believe it
is easier to address the handling of non-public ones.

In short, I see no downsides to helping out the testing security team
while we at the same time try to address the issues with stable
security work.
