True for the most part Gordon, but I always do seem to fall foul of show-stoppers in the development process. It looks like the bug I reported ages ago where you can't dist-upgrade or fresh install Karmic on Linux software RAID using an Nvidia SATA controller hasn't been looked at yet. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mdadm/+bug/414251 I do worry when things like that get missed.
