As I see it, it's the only user friendly way. Using backports is fine for experienced users who do know what to install from backports or who are capable of facing the consequences. If a total newbie asks fort a package in the forums and is pointed to backports he is in great danger of wrecking his system by installing some new kernel, graphics driver, desktop or whatever, precisely because there is no real qa on backports.
