On the social/governance side, as far as I understand, the Ubuntu

corrected. If any core dev is _supposed_ to be able to upload
backports, or otherwise bypass review by the Ubuntu Backporters Team,
then that should be documented and we need some process to at least
set some expectations around what qualifies, etc.
Is there any reason to treat backports different from SRUs in this respect?
If I have upload rights for a package, I can also upload to the SRU
queue. When doing so, I'm supposed to take pains that the upload and
related bug report comply with the SRU policy, to facilitate the review
by an SRU team member. Same ought to apply IMO when uploading to the
backports queue. It's not about bypassing the review.
