I like this a lot -- I'm usually just copy-and-pasting someone else's cc stable line, so I'll probably occasionally nominate my stuff for an inactive stable branch. I'm not too worried about patches accidentally applying to too-old code. FWIW, this is more or less how the kernel's stable branches have been working for me -- I write a "Fixes: <short sha1> short commit subject" line in the commit, and Greg cherry-picks it back to all stable branches since that sha1 that it applies to.
