There could be no point now -and maybe for you-, but it could be in future or for sombody who does not want to update to mga2 yet (kmail2, akonadi, kwallet issues) and want to get some leaf packages for his/her needs (firefox, mondevelop, ...). If we allow bp, and i'm in favor of that, we must consider all the possible cases, and must be able to upgrade to next mgaX without issues due to bp imho.

I understood that also, and it should work exactly as we are using XXX_testing for some packages, if bp is approved must work as expected and allow either upgrade or disabling bp.
