I agree with you. I have tried to do the upgrade, and it's easy.
However, at the current stage, it's unlikely for an upgrade patch to be
accepted. That's why I did the backport.
If the upgrade patch brings a new feature release, then yes. But in this
case it's clearly:
a) bugfix only (nearly all commits since 3.3.3 start with 'fix' or
'check') and
b) contains security fixes
I think it's only a matter of explaining these two things clearly in the
commit message: if you do it, the patch will be accepted.
