I'm a little worried about library transitions. Just because reverse dependencies build doesn't mean the new library version is binary compatible with the previous. Debian is careful and thorough in transition monitoring, but I occasionally find that libraries are updated in Ubuntu while missing rebuilds on depending packages. I only find out after a user submits a bug (e.g. [1]). Will the rolling distribution import from unstable even though unstable may be in the middle of a transition?
