Thomas Ward:
Upgrade tasks aren't, therefore, high priority nor feasible at all times, because they can introduce new issues and compatibility issues.
I have been thinking that it really doesn't change the fact this bugs will be better to be looked first. If developers decide the upgrade is worth it, then the advantages of doing it before starting patching the rest of bugs can still be there.
Developers may want not to upgrade a package in certain releases, while doing it in for example the current alpha.
In any case it looks like deciding this before starting patching is smart, as releases prone to be upgraded are fixed only after deciding which version of the package goes into the release. So which bugs will affect it is more clear since the beginning, and with that also where is worth starting fixing.
