Please do a backport too when updating this package. As far back as
it'll still build.
OK, done.

(Is there any policy or does there exist some list of packages we
generally (should) backport, or is this more or less up to the
maintainer's liking?

No policy, it's up to the maintainer. It's also quite common for one person to backport someone else's package, which of course should make them 'responsible' for the backport, not the original packager.

So wait.... you just tricked Frederik into "being responsible" for the backport.... you sneak!!! :p
