There's the ACL, and then there's the social/governance side. On the ACL side I don't care much, because I trust that core devs and others with similar ACL privilege will follow the policies and processes set by our project. On the social/governance side, as far as I understand, the Ubuntu Backporters Team is delegated authority over the backports pocket, and nobody should be uploading/approving to the backports pocket without adherence to their process. If I'm wrong, I am happy to be corrected. If any core dev is _supposed_ to be able to upload backports, or otherwise bypass review by the Ubuntu Backporters Team, then that should be documented and we need some process to at least set some expectations around what qualifies, etc.
