Okay.. But I think it helps distros if we classify our work a little
more finely, eg anything that merged through the for-rc should be
inspected more closely for distro or stable backporting.

The dependencies are easy enough to deal with if you mark them in the
cover letter.

And I prefer a workflow where the series are smaller, focused on a
topic and more often than in a giant patch bomb once per release. At
least so far anyhow..

Though, I know Doug works quite differently.
