Right idea....

With a pure git solution, we can get rid of backporting and switch to daggy fixes (http://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=1595636, section 'Daggy Fixes and Cherry-picking', near the end). Benefits: backporting will become simply merging; the dag will show us exactly where a fix was made and to which branches it was applied.
