I can say that I still backport mozilla-firefox for my woody users (I am the maintainer of the gnome2.2 backport for woody) with no problems. Though I understand your concerns, a possible option might be to supply upstream packages until the point at which they cannot be provided anymore (if that point is even reached). Additionally, debian-security can work with the debian maintainer to provide debconf warnings about possible incompatibilities or upgrade issues. As a user, I would be ok with upgrading if I knew what to expect. As an admin, I would be happy to know that my users are using a browser with no known vulnerabilities.
