Dave,

Oh, I think during the "release" time we did the opposite. I was basing the 
logic on the sensible origin of the work on the code: the issue found on 
stable/1707, so I first verify the fix with the finder in their lab, thus 
ensuring they test just that change, and then commit and then cherry pick into 
the master, thus ensuring the commit message on the master gets the reference 
to the other commit.

Of course, any new things and the minor bug fixes, especially those I would 
find myself or someone else on master, would go to master first. 

At least that was my logic - but I am happy to replace it with better one! :-)
