However, you should ensure that the rust team is also fine with those
uploads and don't see any problems with such a backport.
the ESR versions of Firefox and Thunderbird requiring especially with a
switch to a more recent ESR version also updated build tool versions
like rustc and cargo.
These are handled by a dedicated source packages to not replace the
available versions in the stable and old-stable release.
For the next round of FF and TB ESR versions this has been done with
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/rustc-web
So maybe a backport isn't really needed I think.
The advice of Alexander to get in touch with the usual package
maintainers is something that you Bruce should do as a first step!
