I thought about it, but was cautious about adding such point.
Why are developers participating? To get a better GeoServer.
Do we really need to give users more incentive?

I agree regressions should be fixed swiftly, but what if during testing
a new bug is spotted, or it's something affecting a minor
extension? Do we "stop the presses" for any of those?
