Then would "Target to release" be appropriate?

Fix Released:

    * For a bug task about upstream projects: a release tarball was announced 
and is publicly available
    * For package maintainers, a fix was uploaded to an official Ubuntu 
repository
          o This does not include -proposed i.e. hardy-proposed
          o Please don't hesitate to add a changelog as a comment, so people 
know what to look out for 
    * If a bug is fixed in the current development branch, that is good enough 
for Fix Released. If the bug also needs to be fixed in a stable release, use 
the "Target to release" link to nominate it for that release.

I am unfamiliar with how to do that, or even if it is appropriate.
However this issue/bug still remains unfixed in _current released
versions of Ubuntu_, so I am confused as to how/why it should be
backported rather than fixed. Aren't backports typically new features
rather than fixes to existing packages?
