I'm wondering if it wouldn't be better to just backport the current VLC
to the stable releases' backports repositories if it's not possible to
publish security updates in time. Better to have a "leap" in versions
than to leave users behind with vulnerable software. But then there
would have to be some kind of announcement that backports not only
contain newer versions of software, but also security-related updates.
